| 2 | Dessa | "Who's Yellen Now?" | single | We repurpose resistance anthems for confirmation, |
| 3 | Angel Haze | "Weight" | single | and thus blur the distinction. |
| 4 | BAER | "Angels" | single | Every new religion is fractionally more rational, |
| 5 | HYYTS | "Bad Tattoo" | single | marginally more self-aware, |
| 6 | Friday Night Firefight | "Love It Like That" | single | closer to unnecessary. |
| 7 | Daði Freyr | "Feel the Love" | single | We are clothed in a superconductive glow, |
| 8 | Lollia | "Rain On Me" | Rain on Me 2 | if we are willing to peel off the old suits and crusts |
| 9 | A Projection | "Darwin's Eden" | single | and see what glorious creatures we have become. |
| 10 | NIGHT TRAVELER | "Bad Enough" | single | At its best, nostalgia is a rehearsal for pride; |
| 11 | OVRGRWN | "Wasteland" | single | at its worst, a smug delusion that enduring justice can be thoughtlessly improvised. |
| 12 | The Grooves | "Gigantes" | single | There are more answers than questions, |
| 13 | Slayyyter | "Troubled Paradise" | single | and thus many of the paths forward will inevitably involve some retracing of prior steps |
| 14 | Raissa | "SHADES ON" | single | in new and shinier shoes, |
| 15 | Billie Eilish | "Lo Vas A Olvidar (with ROSALÍA)" | single | as we find ways to feel differently about the same streets, |
| 16 | Lande Hekt | "Hannover" | Going to Hell | and thus change where they lead. |
| 17 | Cuchillas | "Unidad de Víctimas Especiales" | single | We become populists of our own fears and impluses, |
| 18 | Alison Darwin | "Ayer" | single | instead of fugitives from yesterday. |
| 19 | Badlands | "Southbound Call" | single | We walk out of the teenage wastelands into fractal cities |
| 20 | As December Falls | "I Don't Feel Like Feeling Great" | I Don't Feel Like Feeling Great +1 | incorporated by transient accumulations of joy |

| 23 | Secret Sphere | "Lifeblood" | single | hopeless, but invincible; |
| 24 | Turbulence | "Madness Unforeseen" | single | chaos, but also glee. |
| 25 | Dust in Mind | "Break" | single | The usefulness of standing on giants |
| 26 | Labyrinth | "Finally Free" | Welcome to the Absurd Circus | is often phrased in terms of horizon distance, |
| 27 | The Lightbringer of Sweden | "Farewell" | single | but more often the giants are standing abs-deep in wolf-blood |
| 28 | MajorVoice | "Waves of Love" | Morgenrot | and rising seas, |
| 29 | Therion | "The Leaf on the Oak of Far" | Leviathan | and it's less pressing to know what else we can't swim to |
| 30 | Antonamasia | "End Oblivion" | single | than to find out what the giants believe about their own fates |
| 31 | Crystallion | "The Wild Hunt" | single | before they carry us into it. |
| 32 | Epica | "Rivers" | Rivers +2 | Of the countless moral errors of astrology, |
| 33 | Phantom Elite | "Glass Crown" | Titanium | maybe the worst is the failure to acknowledge the angular momenta of our only frames of reference. |
| 34 | NEO JAPONISM | "Trigger" | single | An upraised hand is moving at 1500km/hr, |
| 35 | Roselia | "ZEAL of proud" | ZEAL of proud +1 | slashing through space in kaleidosopic spirals, |
| 36 | PEDRO | "日常" | single | waiting to find out what we have the discipline |
| 37 | CHiCO with HoneyWorks | "醜い生き物" | single | to touch without shattering. |
| 38 | Wstdyth | "Official Freestyle" | single | We make tiny changes, sometimes, because we know our unruly strength |
| 39 | glaive | "cloak n dagger" | single | better than our uncertain purpose, |
| 40 | Nosgov | "goes nowhere" | single | and it is only by imagining our implications contained by specificity |
| 41 | Kite | "go away" | single | and hope |
| 42 | polearm | "white swan" | single | that we can countenance the risk of destroying everything we love |
| 43 | Loser | "bonk" | single | by just reaching out. |
| 44 | Ryan Oakes | "PEACE OF MIND" | single | We are not clothed in a superconductive glow, |
| 45 | Scarlxrd | "Red Light" | single | we are superconductors |
| 46 | Death Tour | "Venom" | single | in costumes made of flowing earth |
| 47 | ONI INC. | "THE DEFILER" | single | and tenuous air. |
| 48 | Jasiah | "Unintelligible (feat. nascar aloe)" | single | None of this makes any sense |
| 49 | OLPHEUS | "Terminal" | single | on its own, nor cares. |
| 50 | Emptiness | "Vide, incomplet" | single | Sense-making is ours: mission and diversion, ordeal and breath, |
| 51 | Harakiri for the Sky | "I'm All About the Dusk" | single | ritual and rationale, |
| 52 | Moongates Guardian | "Over Withered Land" | Till The Wind Of The Morning | remorse and rebirth. |
| 53 | Wolfheart | "Skull Soldiers" | single | Our militaristic rhapsodies are strength-training for defiance, |
| 54 | Lombolo | "Skuggan från prärien" | single | and as with any obsession, quickly become their own ends. |
| 55 | Alkonost | "Там, Где Живут Ветра" | Ведомые Ветром | Laws written to encode justice |
| 56 | Tanzwut | "Die Tanzwut kehrt zurück" | single | create establishments by this same act; |
| 57 | Aspar | "Mond" | Maifrost | traditions shaped out of respect |
| 58 | Moonspell | "All or Nothing" | single | replace the empathy of honor |
| 59 | Equilibrium Falls | "Square zero constant" | single | with catalogs of merchandised binaries |
| 60 | Lake Of Tears | "In Wait and in Worries" | In Wait and in Worries +1 | of exclusion and implied entitlement. |
| 61 | Wardruna | "Synkverv" | Kvitravn | We make tiny changes |
| 62 | Bjorth | "Nornir" | single | in order to realize that they do not separate us from who we were, |
| 63 | Green Lads | "Birth of a Celt" | single | and thus neither from who we were not. |
| 64 | Soen | "Illusion" | single | At best, pride is a rehearsal for empathy, |
| 65 | Enorm | "Strange World" | single | to prove we can identify qualities from inside, |

| 70 | Ronnie Atkins | "One Shot" | single | less invested in relimning the old lines |
| 71 | Giorgio Vanni | "Hearthstone siamo gli Eroi" | single | but more intrigued to know where they have been. |
| 72 | Amadeüs | "El Dolor Fantasma" | single | We are tragedians of our most fantastic regrets. |
| 73 | Atreides | "Servet" | single | We walk out of the silver mines with our pockets full of sand. |
| 74 | Juli | "Ich verschwinde" | Da Draußen 5 | We have catalogued songs of leaving in heavy chests. |
| 75 | Josh Arnold | "Small Town" | single | We evangelize precious secrets |
| 76 | Good Grief | "Sapphire" | Sapphire / Back in Action 2 | like we facet gems with our regard |
| 77 | AIRPORT | "newsong" | single | and then immediately forget that this is one of our powers. |
| 78 | 神はサイコロを振らない | "未来永劫" | single | We make tiny changes: |
| 79 | Survive Said The Prophet | "Conscious (To Redefine ver.)" | To Redefine / To Be Defined | of our shoes, |
| 80 | Ling tosite sigure | "Perfake Perfect" | Perfake Perfect +2 | of the sigils we assign to grace or nihil, |
| 81 | Lonely The Brave | "Chasing Knives" | The Hope List | of the synchrony between our rhythms |
| 82 | ANTIHELD | "irgendwo stirbt grad ein kind" | irgendwo stirbt grad ein kind 5 | and the words we say |
| 83 | Frana | "The King is naked and he is looking for you" | Odds and ends 4 | and the truths we know; |
| 84 | Easy Prey | "Backwoods Nation" | single | in how sure we are of our own doom. |

| 88 | Blacks | "Hovis" | single | watch over spaces for the tiny changes that actually constitute progress. |
| 89 | Craig Cardiff | "Don't Give Up" | Blue Monday (Don't Give Up) | We repurpose anthems, industriously, without ever fully understanding what they were for when they were new. |
| 90 | Labyrinth | "Dancing with Tears in My Eyes" | Welcome to the Absurd Circus | But it's OK, it's OK, they only ever wanted us to fall in love with errors we have a chance to not make, with fates we might write into elusively epic stories |
| 91 | Big Country | "I Am A Small Republic" | The Compulsion Years: Demos | instead of reading into our too-small lives. |
