#1 Artist of the Year: Tool
Top 5: 1. Tool 2. LCD Soundsystem 3. The National 4. Metric 5. Now, Now
I listened to artists from 46 countries.
Artist of the Decade: Radiohead
My 2019 Top 5 mostly makes sense, although I'm not sure how Now, Now snuck in there. I think part of this speaks to how much I use Spotify primarily as a discovery engine - I don't tend to camp on one artist for long, unless I'm prepping for a concert (which is what likely pushed Tool into the top slot, along with putting Metric on the list). LCD Soundsystem and The National, though, don't surprise me in the slightest.
It should be noted that I was a fairly late adopter, too - I only really started using the service in earnest in mid-late 2017 - so my decade numbers probably aren't that representative of what I've been listening to over the past decade. Radiohead claiming my decade spot isn't that much a surprise, though, especially considering the catalogue dive I did on them during the run-up to and immediate aftermath of the 4-night MSG residency of 2018.
Do you want to dance while also thinking about all the ways you've failed as a human?

mostly just my last two drafts (Cracklin' Rosie made the graphic postjack ) and some random stuff sprinkled in. I'm most proud of El Cabron, (of Eastbound and Down fame) and it's brief inclusion in a Cinco playlist that I made for a party that didn't happen, making this list. Go ahead and just call me La Flama Blanca.
