In case anyone was wondering: when I say the entries in my #YearEndLists of books and movies have no particular order I really mean it. In fact, they are completely randomized so no unconscious bias will influence the order.

I alway include pictures of the authors because I do wanna celebrate them - but it also helps me see some patterns and it annoys certain people, so it's really worth the effort.

Here's my favourite records from 2022:

Hope you'll find some inspiration.

Agh, forgot I’ve also really enjoyed #heartstopper but the graphic novel and TV series, and I’m really excited to see where the second TV series in 2023 takes the graphic novel material and fleshes it out. The final volume of the graphic novel should be out next year as well.

The year-end lists continue. Here's Hank Shteamer's 10 best metal albums of 2022 for Spin magazine. There's that Sigh album again.

Finally creating my favorite year end list. Not counting the sources for my thesis, I've read 73 books in 2022. That's almost twice the amount I usually manage, probably because I was too sick to cultivate other hobbies. As many titles were simply excellent, I'm going for a top 15 list in no particular order. I hope you find something you like.

Please note that this is a list of books I've read in 2022, regardless of when they were published.

Steve Lacy - Bad Habit

Der eine Track meiner Top Ten, der tatsächlich auf der Worst-List meines Partners gelandet ist? Ich muss gestehen, dass ich den Refrain auch erst nervig fand, aber alles drumrum ist perfekt. Ich liebe, dass Steve Lacy so entspannt und uncreepy klingt, nicht als hänge seine gesamte Existenz von einem Date mit der angesungenen Person ab. "You can't surprise a gemini" killer line einfach.

Mir ist langweilig, es dauert noch bis zur Bescherung und deswegen verrate ich euch jetzt meine Top 10 der besten Popsongs 2022. Mein Long Covid Brain war in diesem Jahr nicht in der Lage dazu, komplexe Musik aufzunehmen und alle großartigen Bands, die mir gezeigt wurden, waren keine große Hilfe. Was geholfen hat, waren US-Radiosender (sorry, Mark Forster hätte mir den Rest gegeben) mit Zuckerwattemusik. Und die teil ich jetzt mit euch. #HeikeLiebtListen #YearEndLists #TopTenSongs2022 #Popmusik

My partner and I listened to the Billboard year end charts and made each other lists with the ten best and worst pop songs of the year. I think I'm gonna share the best list with you, even the cringey picks.

But I need to ask: Do you want me to share the worst list on here?

Are #YearEndLists a thing in the Fediverse? Like, are you all gonna tell me your favorite books, movies, songs, shows, teas, knitting patterns or fungi of 2022 next week? Is that something we do? #YearEndList

The year-end lists continue. Brad Sanders offers this list of his 12 best, ostensibly limited to albums on Bandcamp. There are Ashenspire and Sigh again, but check out that album art for the Otolith. Must spin.

Year-end lists continue. Spyros Stasis and Antonio Poscic put together a really interesting list—with more stuff I have to check out. Those albums by Boris, Sigh, and Chat Pile make appearances again, but I need to hear that Ashenspire album, and who are Nordjevel and Verberis? Must investigate!

I almost always make a top 10 or top 20 album of year list. But i feel like it isn't fair this year. With some personal struggles i've been going through i haven't been devouring new #metal albums the way I usually do. It's been a curl up with my dog and my favourite classic albums sort of year. #bestof2022 #yearendlists

Year-end lists continue. Ian Chainey’s 20 best metal albums of 2022, via Stereogum. There are many days when this writing voice would irk me, but today I find it amusing.

The list itself is a bit out there. This is a good thing sometimes—we like to know what we might be missing out on.

Year-end lists continue. Metal Sucks for years and years did separate posts for each contributor’s list, but this year put it all in one post. Readers’ survey usually comes next.

Definitely agree with many of these picks. My #1 is on here. 🙃

Year-end lists continue. Here’s the top 30 from the staff of Heavy Consequence. I don’t care for the writing here, but there are a few titles I’ve meant to check out. That Boris album is making a few lists.
