Sorry you have a limited music taste? There were a bunch of great albums released this year.
1000 Forms Of Fear being the most recognizable of the bunch.
No lies, mainstream artists just released ok albums this year. 1989 isn't as good as ATRL makes it look like, the critics love Taylor and her success is huge that some of them feel forced to like her music and gives out good reviews.
There are literally only 4 songs that stand out:
Blank Space
Out Of The Woods
Style
Wildest Dreams
