Artists you love with a depressingly small body of work
Idk I was just thinking about Glass Beach's recent dissolution and also how one of my favorite electronic acts only has two EPs, its always a tragedy when musicians show immense potential to be something special artistically, or even get to be something special, but then get it ripped away because of external things like... dying or going insane (RIP Nick Drake and Syd Barrett)

How do ppl end up having so many mutuals on rym
I’ve seen users on the site have millions of followers & their comment box looks like all their friends are having a blast cracking jokes & spreading positivity… Meanwhile I’m just the laughing stock of the website.. No Motion… No Friends… Ass at the game… Broke Asab…
I’ve become pretty active on rym over the past few months & I’ve only gained 1 or 2 new followers. I’ve been actively logging new ratings, creating lists, updating them quite often but it feels like I’m just doing it for no reason 😢
I’d love to meet some cool new people that share similar music taste.. Do you guys have any recommendations on how to find users that would fit this description?? 🧐🧐🧐🧐

What‘s the largest discrepancy you‘ve seen between Rate Your Music and Album Of The Year?
I haven‘t any example in mind, but the question simply came to my head.
Just so I have something to share, I looked up my favorite album on RYM and AOTY and the scores are respectively 3.83 and 8.4 (so 4.2). AOTY always rates higher so I‘d say this is fairly close.
My favorite album of 2026 has 3.69 and 8.3, which shows a bigger discrepancy but still not a big one.

Any artists with a discography that's relatively unknown except for one album? (one album with >10k ratings, the rest has <1k ratings)
So far these are the only one I can find, some others who are close is Mort Garson, Glenn Branca (he would be in the list if the EP is excluded)

It's crazy to me how we let an Al generated song enter the top 1000

Looking for anyone
Looking for a personal DJ, mixing engineers, producers, songwriters, lawyers, managers, etc.
P.S. Just so you hit me up, acknowledge that I’m going to pay you with royalties of my shi, not cash.

I made a userscript to build RYM music chart links directly from release pages
So i just saw this post and got an idea to make this small userscript called RYM Music Chart Picker.
The basic idea is simple, when you are on a music release page, you can turn on Chart Search and click metadata from the release page to quickly build a matching RYM chart URL. You can pick release type, release year, primary genres/scene, secondary genres, descriptors, and languages. Then it open to a new tab with the matching chart page using those filters.
The userscript is pretty customizable. You can choose the chart type, default release type behavior, default language filters, panel behavior, picker theme, and how selected metadata is highlighted on the page. By default, it uses Top, keeps the release type the same as the current release page, uses all languages, and highlights selected metadata with bold orange text.
I figured other RYM users might find it useful too, especially if you often jump from a release page to genre/year/descriptor charts. It is still early, so feedback, bug reports, or suggestions are welcome. This is for music release pages only.

Can you make a list private?
I searched this sub, and see people mentioning having private lists; but I couldn't find any info on how to make them. Are they actually referring to lists outside RYM? Also, if there is no private lists feature currently, is there a workaround to somehow hide a list from the public eye? Thanks.

Other Places You Go to Look for Music?
RYM has been a breath of fresh air these last few years while trying to navigate a digital realm heavily impacted by social media curation. Despite this I feel like I am over relying on it despite finding a lot of great records on there. I was curious which other music resources y'all use to discover music outside of RYM. RYM is a great tool but I want to diversify you know?

What do we think of this fresh album?
NAME: alice protozoa smoke - opulent familiarity, lotus horizon
Could this be the next "cult classic" on the platform? Blends neo psychedelia and post rocky and dreamy melodies, really absorbing and original combo
Has some ratings, almost if-not bolded iirc and great ratings (there is a song with 4.6/5, out of 57 ratings i believe though)

Why has no studio album been able to stay above a 3.90 since 2024?
Could it be that the site becoming more polarized/diverse in opinion? Or do you think there is another reason?
EDIT: I mean newly released studio albums

Question about starting a new account
I used this site a lot when I was very young. Eventually stopped using it and then started again about 2 years ago. Wanted to make a new account where I will only include releases I actually remember listening to, but it also generally seems nice to be able to start with a fresh account. But this will cause a lot of duplicate ratings, which is why I'm scared I will offend this rule and get my accounts deleted. I would preferably like to keep my old account up for archival purposes.

Artists or other famous people who use RYM themselves
Are there many famous people, musicians or otherwise, on rym that are worth following? The only one I know of that I follow is S. Craig Zahler, but I wonder if there's a list compiled or if anyone here has any suggestions.
