I don't remember what scores I gave them anymore but I take back any negative things I may have said about Moments to Remain by Act of Creation and Encrypted by Nightmare. Scarcity can force you to give every album a fair chance and that really helps in separating the wheat from the chaff. Those two are my main AOTY candidates so far. It's been months but Awake and Incandescent are still burned into my mind and I play them every day. I'm glad I set out to start discovering music for myself a few years ago it really paid off (even though my tastes are no nore patrician than they were before). Speaking of slop for plebs I see the Pale Waves album is out now
