E quais os melhores discos lançados em 2019? As listas andam pipocando e reunimos algumas anunciadas pelas principais publicações pelo mundo.
O ano de 2019 foi um ano complicado. Confuso politicamente, com retrocessos em diversos países, com uma direita autoritária flertando com fascismo e fundamentalismo religioso. Houve também reações em diversos desses países, com revoltas populares e derramamento de sangue. O mundo se mostrou em ebulição, por diversos fatores.
No universo da música pode parecer que não tivemos um ano muito interessante, já que poucos trabalhos chamaram atenção de forma ampla. Assim como toda a questão política, porém, esses são sinais dos tempos. Se nada explodiu e se tornou unanimidade, talvez esse seja o caminho que estejamos seguindo na contemporaneidade, com muita música sendo produzida, muitos lançamentos e uma dispersão de bons trabalhos em várias direções e estilos.
Veja também:
– Que música ouvimos nas rádios brasileiras?
– Os mais ouvidos na década e em 2019 no Brasil e no mundo pelo Spotify.
– Os novos videoclipes da atual música brasileira para fechar 2019.
Dá para perceber também, que por mais que alguns insistam no fim ou decadência do formato álbum, e na ascendência total do modo singles, os álbuns continuam firmes e fortes, sendo lançados e aclamados, independente do suporte. Um ano que, se nada brilhou isoladamente e se destacou muito mais que outros, vários bons lançamentos chegaram a quem buscou novidades, seja de artistas mais novos ou veteranos.
Aqui reunimos as listas de melhores álbuns de 2019 por várias publicações pelo mundo.
