I’m not a music guy at all, but I wanted to show support for Tim by commenting this.

Thanks for the list, I will delve into it.

I went to an Oasis concert in 1995 and it was great (wow, was that really 30 years ago?). The band was in top form. It sounds like the brothers are still going strong. Very happy to hear it.

Your reflection on Oasis and your experience at the show was a fun read!

I’ve never known about this article until this years list and I’m not gonna lie, I’m kinda pissed about it. I love that Tim loves music. I would love if at the end or beginning of a pod once a week Tim tells us what he’s listening to. I love discovering new hidden musical treasures

When all the Oasis elements come together - Liam’s vocals, Noel’s songwriting, and the right backing band, they are magic, and become equal to their bountiful swagger. And they can still come together :)

My favorite article of the year. Tim, you gave me MJ Lenderman and Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit in past years’ lists. What a gift. Can’t wait to dig into this year’s and get some new favorites.

I still say Verve 》Oasis. Especially live, while Nick McCabe was on guitar.

That Oasis concert experience sounds way better than the Phish show I saw on Sunday (Stating the obvious, of course)

This article is so much fun! Thank you! I am so excited to get out of my comfort zone and check out new music! I hope this enriches my Spotify algorithm, too. It seems to be stuck in a loop for the past year haha.

Update: Viagra Boys - hell yes, sign me up!

Tim, I'm a 64-year-old engineer and musician (I'm packing the car for a gig right now, in fact). It will no doubt please you to know that you are my gateway to fun music. You're also old enough not to frighten me. I can sight-read music and all that...but as a former Detroiter, I went right for the punk rock. Perhaps the Viagra Boys are actually for me? I'll give the rest of the list a listen tomorrow, even the brat.

Former (Metro) Detroiter and punk rock obsessive here. I didn’t get The Viagra Boys when I first heard them, but they are now one of my favorite punk rock bands to emerge in the last decade. I hope you like them!
