| 1 | Hitsujibungaku | "夜を越えて" | single | The vastness of the sky is not an argument with the specificity of now, |

| 8 | Puffy AmiYumi | "エッサフォッサ" | single | Our legends each begin with a definitive misunderstanding, |

| 10 | KISIDA KYODAN & THE AKEBOSI ROCKETS | "HIGHSCHOOL OF THE DEAD[2021]" | single | until this becomes too magnificently untenable. |
| 11 | UVERworld | "来鳥江" | single | Other humans are not clouds, |
| 12 | TOTALFAT | "WE RUN ON FAITH" | single | but gazing across distance is an act |
| 13 | MIYAVI | "New Gravity" | single | independent of which curvature technically governs it. |

| 15 | Slania | "Limbo" | single | and maybe are not really good at anything else. |
| 16 | Viana | "Kukkuvutit" | Sinnattuinnarusukkaluarpunga | The vastness of the ice is not the canvas for our love, |
| 17 | YYNOT | "Burning Bridge" | single | or it is, but so is fire and and whatever remains after fire, |
| 18 | Kyros | "Behind the Lines" | RECOVER | and so is every complex evasion, |
| 19 | Divided Island | "Error 404" | single | compound failure, |
| 20 | The Last Martyr | "Afterglow" | single | cathartic survival |
| 21 | Oceanhoarse | "Betrayed by Light" | Dead Reckoning | or cathartic irresolution that might still be survival |

| 35 | WARGASM (UK) | "Salma Hayek" | single | You do not reach another human soul by abstracting it into silhouette, |
| 36 | Pangolin | "Blood$ucker" | single | but caricature works, so the problem is not the outline, but the darkness. |
| 37 | yung axstn | "Underneath" | single | Screaming is not itself a rhetorical device, |
| 38 | LiL Lotus | "Over and Over Again" | ERRØR BØY | but the machines have to get their energy from somewhere, |

| 47 | Polly Scattergood | "Saturn 9" | single | even as it spins away from our shoes, |
| 48 | The Joy Formidable | "Sevier" | Into the Blue | and a way to keep our corrosive senses of purpose from rendering us unable to wander. |
| 49 | Tulenkulkijat | "Kunnon tyttö" | single | The earth doesn't end, |
| 50 | swim school | "everything you wanted" | making sense of it all 5 | nor should your dreams: |
| 51 | Lorde | "The Path" | Solar Power | least of all in idyllic repose |
| 52 | Juliana Hatfield | "Red Poinsettia" | Christmas Cactus // Red Poinsettia 2 | or toxic idolatry |
| 53 | Dar Williams | "Today and Every Day" | Today and Every Day +1 | or resignational grace. |
| 54 | CXLOE | "Soft Rock" | single | Love what you need, |
| 55 | GRACEY | "What A Waste" | single | and then what you need to let go, |

| 66 | Brendan Peyper | "Warm Nog Op" | single | The strangers who came to town move into those weird townhouses behind where the middle school used to be, |
| 67 | Tasché | "Baby, Ek Bly" | single | or the country you thought was yours. |
| 68 | Stephanie Quayle | "Lone Ranger" | single | And you will say "I will not fall in love with these new people", |
| 69 | Ashland Craft | "That's The Kinda Place" | single | and "I am the middle of the only nowhere that matters", |
