2 Aldous Harding — Designer
3 Froth - Duress
4 Fruit Bats - Gold Past Life
5 Pedro the Lion - Phoenix
6 WH Lung - Incidental Music
7 Dommengang - No Keys
8 Rose City Band - Rose City Band
9 Dry Cleaning — Sweet Princess
10 Keys - Bring me the Head of Jerry Garcia
11 Garcia Peoples - Natural Facts
12 Better Oblivion Community Centre - Better Oblivion Community Centre
13 Snapped Ankles - Stunning Luxury
14 Hiss Golden Messenger - Terms of Surrender
15 Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs - King of Cowards

Sorry but not to include Billie Eilish 'When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? in your best albums demonstrates a lack of musical knowledge. Best album of the year by a mile

Honest answer - I've never been a huge Nick Cave fan and I've not listened to the album.

There is only so much music you can listen to!

It's well worth an hour of your time, in places it touches on late-era Scott Walker which is no bad thing. It's one of those albums you need to devote your time to like a good film, put your headphones on and sit and listen to it as a whole piece,it's not something you can appreciate on shuffle in the background at work.

Never heardof any of them... but I did see that Rod Stewart was top of the album charts recently.... which suggests your list is as realistic as Corbyn's brain

Thought I’d throw in Cate Le Bon - “Reward”. Not a foot-stomper album, but beautifully odd & quirky....much like the Welsh Queen herself. Certainly for fans of Kate Bush, John Cale & Gorkys.

Was nominated for the Mercury Prize.

Opening track from REWARD, entitled ‘Miami’ recorded live at KEXP.

It means that a personal fetish held by someone with an overdeveloped sense of self --importance may not necessarily tie in the views of the majority.

Christ.

Please note: prior to hitting the post button, I've double checked for anything that could be construed as "Anti Semitic" and to the best of my knowledge it isn't. Anything deemed to be of a Xenophobic nature is therefore purely accidental or down to your own misconstruing.

Aha. I see, the problem here is that you appear to be a bellend.

Well done. I'm very pleased for you.

I’m a little torn by this. On first listening it was quite good - but I went back to it a bit later & I just didn’t get that same spark again. The previous album, Weather Diaries is far superior on all fronts IMHO.

Jump Jet is a cracker of a song, mind.

Ironic statement given his endless self-congratulatory BLOGS.
