I remember their first album, the one with a song called like...Sequoia Throne? Something like that. I kind of liked that album, but the dude's clean vocals were a little too much for me.

Fortress was their second album. I was actually like that at first too but they really grew on me.

Groove Heaven I'm a /mu/tant. Pretty solid list. I was honestly pretty disappointed with Death Grips' new release this year. I thought it was gonna be a lot better. Overall hip hop albums were pretty disappointing this year compared to last year. I haven't listened to Janelle's new album, but I've been meaning to though.

Also +1 to whoever mentioned David Bowie's album, that was pretty solid.

Here's my top 10:
10) Touche Amore - Is Survived By. Really well-done emo album with fantastic lyrics and progression.
9) Disclosure - Settle. Catchy as hell house album with pretty much every track being memorable in some way.
8) My Bloody Valentine - m b v. My favorite band putting out a very solid release. The second half of the album is what really sets it apart.
7) Melt-Banana - Fetch. Just an explosion of sound from one of my favorite noise rock groups, one of their best releases.
6) Ka - Night's Gambit. My favorite hip hop release this year, really unique style with this one.
5) This Routine is Hell - Howl. My second favorite punk release for this year.
4) Parquet Courts - Light Up Gold. Great indie album. Too bad their second release this year kinda sucked.
3) Julia Holter - Loud City Song. Just amazingly well-done album that really surprised me.
2) VV Brown - Samson & Delilah. Awesome poppy, trip hoppy album that just gets better with every listen.
1) Iceage - You're Nothing. My favorite punk album of the year, and the one that stands out the most for me. They've really outdone themselves since New Brigade.

I don't know why I liked the Death Grips album as much as I did. Like...it's not that good, I just really liked it. I like the way Zach Hill plays with noise, but there was way too much vocal sampling vs. actual verses.

Yeah, a lot of rappers really disappointed me this year. The Flatbush tape is the only one I got really really into.

I tooooootally forgot that Iceage album came out this year. That should have been on my top 10 XD
