We are down to the last two recaps of the year. I am still trying to decide how to proceed with the Top 20 Countdown. I have enough songs and material to make it work, I just don't know if I have it in me to write blurbs anymore. It's been an undertaking this year to pump out any sort of written material.
But, we do still have September and October to punch out. So let's rock. Being out of town on two different trips meant significantly less scrobbles in September. 17% less, in fact. 2589 scrobbles from 797 unique artists, equaling 6 days and 20 hours worth of music. Top hours were 12-1p, 11a-12p, and 10-11p, while the top genres were Rock, Futurepop, Synthpop, Alternative Rock, and Electronic.
Top Songs for September
10. Blindside - Nerve
9. Five Iron Frenzy - Dandelions
8. Rammstein - Lügen
7. Coheed and Cambria - The Liars Club
6. Truslow - Abbey Dear
5. Silversun Pickups - Alone on a Hill
4. Assemblage 23 - Dissonance
3. Ghost - Spillways
2. Ronnie Martin - From The Womb Of The Morning, The Dew Of Your Youth Will Be Yours
1. Forever Unknown - sad people, blue eyes
By September, it's full-on recap season, with the best of the best being re-examined for the final countdown. 7 of the 10 here will be on the recap, and they will probably populate the top 10 of the final 20 as well.

A battle between the band I saw at the beginning of the month (R+) and the 3 that I saw at the end (DH, FIF and Blindside). It felt nice to wade through the waters of the music I grew up with this month while also playing a lot of 2022's favorites.
Props to Last.FM for always having my statistical back. One more month ahead!
