#2. The Devil Wears Prada - For You
Title: For You
Artist: The Devil Wears Prada
Album: Flowers
The Devil Wears Prada has twice been just on the outside looking in, with 2019's "Chemical" and 2015's "Planet A", but they've never been a band that I really listened to much. Still, Dayton Ohio's best musical export absolutely rocketed up the list this year, from the first time I heard "For You" until today as I write this. The song starts off slow before ramping up at the chorus and slamming home the heaviest, most disgusting neck-throttling breakdown of the year. I think I've listened to that part of the song more than any one singular verse or moment than anything else this year. What a hammer. What a song. Welcome to, well, almost the top, fellas.
Favorite line: "I could bring the world to you, but what is it worth? Whеn everything I give to you just diеs in the dirt"
