Best album of 2014 so far

[The Fish 10963]

Already have done, mostly as a way to keep track of everything myself. There's a couple of songs I've liked from albums I haven't like Ray Lamongtane and Phantogram that may be more to other people's tastes.

 

2014 Primer

 

Has that worked?

[Happy Face 29]

There's very little that's drawn me back for more than a few listens to be honest so I'm struggling to come up with many I really loved.

 

 

Amerigo Gazaway probably got most re-listens from me. He did a quality mashup album of Mos Def and Marvin Gaye songs and another that was all James Brown tracks with vocals from Nas, Busta Rhymes,The Notorious B.I.G., Mobb Deep and others.

 

He also did a De La Soul & Fela Kuti mix back in 2011.

The Menzingers album wasn't as good as their last but The Talk is a the one song I have listened to more than any other, perfect breakup fare.

 

That's closely followed by Dingo Fence by Self Defense Family. There's not many songs more childish, but it should thrill you, it sounds good. A cunt filled, guitary, repetitious song that would happen if Kraftwerk were a garage rock band.

 

Third place goes to Seasons by Future Islands, which is gorgeous.

[David Kelly 1260]

The War on Drugs is not everyone's cup of tea apparently but I love it. Think that will be there or thereabouts on most lists too.

They certainly aren't Sun Kill Moons cup of tea going by

 

I really liked both of them though.
