How do you guys listen to all of these albums? I made a new years resolution to listen to enough to participate but I just can't find the time. The best I can do is listen to an album at work, and sometimes they catch my ear even through the slog of the work day. Jenny Lewis did that for me, also Boy Harsher did that.
However, I put on the new Weyes Blood and was ready for my JFC moment and then before I knew it, a work email had me into the second track already.
I guess I've never found a way to digest as much music as some of you, and I'm jealous about that.
I quit trying a long time ago. Once you start worrying about having enough time to listen to everything, it becomes more work and less fun. When I’m in the mood to listen to new stuff, I’ll check in here for ideas. If something particularly moves me in a given month I’ll vote for it, but I don’t sweat it.
This is pretty much what I do. The months I feel like I haven't listened to enough stuff I don't vote, unless I feel very strongly about the album.
Most of my listening takes place on my commute to and from work; a half hour is usually enough to tell me at least if I want to continue listening to an album. During opening shifts I can put in headphones for an hour after getting to work, so that helps. I also throw on some tunes when I'm working out, and when I'm home and my gf is occupied with her own workout I have the airspace to myself. Very little is dedicated solely to listening to the album - I tend to only do that with stuff I know I want to appreciate deeply - but I get a good spread of music in this way.
Also I don't understand the love for Weyes Blood at all. I've listened to it twice now; it's okay but honestly I'm baffled by the strong reactions.

I kinda feel this. I think it's good but the reactions to it has been a little over the top to me. I think it might be a grower though, so I'll keep listening.
There's also some other albums that came out last Friday that I thought were boring as hell or meh that other people here are talking highly of. Different strokes.
I listen when I can, I find that I can digest the music best in the car. If I know I will be doing a dull task at work and no one will bother me I'll try and fit an album in. I by no means listen to every new album that comes out. I know my taste and I generally stick with that. When something picks up traction on here I make a point to listen to it in full even if it's not exactly my taste. In doing this I have found some new artists that I didn't know I liked.

I only listened to Little Simz, Comet is Coming, Jenny Lewis and Billy Eilish in March, but I have Weyes Blood on now since people are splooshing over it.

Chemical brothers was fire this morning though.
So far it's between Chem Bros and PUP for me. I also have yet to listen to Weyes though... but I wasn't big on her last album
In case anyone missed it Donnie Trumpet and The Social Experiment basically renames themselves inellexual and dropped an album on Friday. It’s not amazing but it’s enjoyable.

Wasn't really feeling that Weyes Blood record.
PUP very well might be AOTY for me tbh. Either that or Homecoming.
Also how do you guys keep track of new releases? I usually just trawl this thread but it means I'm behind on shit.
