2013 music?

[chauncey]

Goes without saying the new Deerhunter record is boss and even Vampire Weekend have pleasantly surprised with their new(ish) direction but the albums of the year for me so far have been:

 

Waxahatchee - Cerulean Salt

I've barely listened to any new releases, but 'Amok' by Atoms for Peace (super-group featuring Thom Yorke and Flea) has been my stand-out.

The National have just released their latest album 'Trouble Will Find Me', impressed on first listen, they're really fucking good. Arcade Fire have finished recording, set for a release later this year.

 

I like Youth Lagoon, will check that out as well as the Vampire Weekend one, who sometimes I like and sometimes think are shite. And the Deerhunter one which I had no idea about.

[Ian Sea]

Bill Ryder-Jones's new album is tremendous, I would definitely recommend it.

[Pidge]

Just picked up the new ASIWYFA album.

 

More quality. Love this band.

I really like the Disclosure record. I'm also excited about the new ones due from Janelle Monae and Roman GianArthur.

OP beat me to it with Unknown Mortal Orchestra - addictive as fuck

Good stuff that. Saw them at Damnation Festival once, decent live band as well.

[Ziggy Stardust]

New Arcade Fire album out in the UK on October 28.

[chauncey]

Heard the new Sigur Rós album this morning. Fuck me it's fantastic - more abrasive guitars and hooks than you'd expect from them but they've nailed a sound with this record which is still theirs but much more accessible.

 

I'd recommend anyone who's never gave them a go to start with this one...

[setreal]

I know I'm probably late to the party (again), but I just discovered these and they fucking rule:

Just back from Thee Oh Sees in Amsterdam. Still comfortably the best live band on the planet. If you like music go see. Floating Coffin is the last album and it is great but you have to see them live really. Still only 13 euro as well.

[stringvest]

I like this young chap - Napoleon Dynamite with white soul chops

The new Leprous album is unbelievable.

First song from the new album by Slut (one of the best German bands around). Sadly they fucked up the stereo-pan a bit...

Out today, have you got it El Teach? I picked up on my way in to work along with Th'Arctic Monkeys new one - the girl on the till thought it an interesting pairing - and I'm looking forward to a listen of both later.

 

Been some belting albums this year with The National, Sigur Ros, Laura Marling, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Lord Huron, Public Service Broadcasting, Local Natives, Julia Holter, These New Puritans, QOTSA, The Shouting Matches, Kurt Vile, Jetplane Landing and Deerhunter all having had heavy rotation.

 

I've heard an early leak of the new Arcade Fire track Reflektor once and was pretty impressed (officially released at 9pm tonight), it has a real Bowie vibe to it and I'm really, really excited about the new album in October, on which Bowie is rumoured to feature.

 

A great year so far.

[Bjornebye]

The best new band around at the moment are a band called 'Temples'.

 

Really good i'd definitely recommend giving them a listen.

[Stu Monty]

Looking forward to seeing what yer man from LCD Soundsystem has done with the production of Arcade Fire.

 

I'm massively into K.Flay after being put onto her the other week. Some belters in her back-catalogue and on the new What if it is EP.

 

This is from this year's West Ghost EP. Ace work:

You'll notice it features Stringvest's suggestion Allen Stone.

Bowie is backing-vocals on Reflektor. It's fucking good. Video later, also.

 

On the off-chance that anyone is in the Montreal area, they're playing at Salsatheque tonight.

[Adebisi]

Floating Coffin by Thee Oh Sees is probably my favourite album so far this year, I'm really enjoying Doris by Earl Sweatshirt too even though I'm not much of a hip hop fan. Love the new Deerhunter too, going to see them in October. Microcastle is still my favourite mind.

 

Just realised the new Ty Segall is out too so I'm listening to that.

Ty Segall is boss, Slaughterhouse is a brilliant record.

[Batigol]

New national album is quality from start to finish.  Going to need a lot more listens but if it keeps growing on me, it's their best work so far.
