    2025 Album Year-End Lists: 5 Surprises & Takeaways

    It's the first week of December, and that means almost every major 'best albums of the year' list is officially out. On this week's episode of BV Weekly, Dave and Andrew go through 5 takeaways, discoveries, and surprises of the major lists we've seen so far. We discuss Pitchfork's very niche #1 album of the year (11:40), the multiple-lists-dominating Gelli Haha (30:13), the double whammy of Geese's new album and singer Cameron Winter's 2024 solo album (37:11), the representation (or lack thereof) of heavy music on this year's major lists (47:46), and some glaring/interesting omissions (58:49). Also in this episode, we talk new music from redveil, Tigers Jaw, Ratboys, and more, and share some news about Björk, Rosalía, FKA twigs, The 1975, and more.
