Can't speak with any authority on the best albums of 2022, having listened to all of eleven, but ¡Ay! (Lucrecia Dalt) and Comradely Objects (Horse Lords) surely did not disappoint:

https://horselords.bandcamp.com/album/comradely-objects-2
Both played blinding sets at #LeGuessWho, I might add.
It's easier, somehow, to say which of the films I watched this year really blew me away:
The Dance (Pat Collins, 2022)

Another Round (Thomas Vinterberg, 2020)
And books...I read many, but these few will stay with me:
Dog Soldiers (Robert Stone)
Invisible Cities (Italo Calvino)
Little Constructions (Anna Burns)
Maybe the People Would Be the Times (Lucy Sante)
