Give me recommendations based on these albums

As an American I've always been drawn to UK bands. They just damn near all always speak to me. Always inventive. Always poignant, musically & lyrically. The Amazons, Overgrown, and Nothing But Thieves these days (up top) are total favorites, but Doves might be my overall favorite.

As soon as I exported this I wrote down an obvious unintentional snub on the list: OASIS. Duh. Who else though?

yes, i know i have "rym" ass music taste

My top 100 albums, in a loose order. Would love some pointers into the folk stuff that’s kinda close to emo music? Similar to the stuff Home is Where or Slaughter Beach, Dog do? Idk who they’re taking from really.

IF YOU FOUND TASTE TO BE SIMILAR AND WANT TO JAM THEN MY DISCORD IS-themenzinger7

For me Didn't it Rain, Turn on The Bright Lights, Songs About Leaving are my top 3 for 2002

Limited myself to one per artist between both charts including aliases and side-projects otherwise Tally Hall and MF DOOM would take most of both charts

Saw a few people doing these so I thought it would be fun. Vote out your 2 least favorite albums on here until one is left!
