I'm really looking forward to the new release from a lovely gentleman from Sheffield but I won't get ahead of myself because it's not out for another week or so.

Has he a quiff and auditioned for Morrissey's band around the Kill Uncle Era?

 

[CharlieFairhead]

I'm rather fond of the leisure society's album too.

Er and Fanfarlo.

 

[Girl-with-the-Thorn]

Apart from YOR, I think it would have to be Florence and The Machine's 'Lungs'.

as far as stuff that ACTUALLY came out this year

The Horrors-Primary Colours
Throbbing Gristle-Third Mind Movements
Moz-YOR

 

[Hidden By Rags]

There have been a few favorites already mentioned, but I'm really anticipating the Crayon Fields' forthcoming release. I'm hoping it will top my list.

I really like them too

I haven't heard anything new this year that I cared half as much about as Years of Refusal, so that's my choice.

I think The Horrors might end up contending though - can't remember when I heard a new song I liked as much as Three Decades. They remind you of Sisters of Mercy and My Bloody Valentine and Suicide, (as do about 3 million other bands) and they still sound fresh and distinct and even, dare I say it, original. Quite a feat.

cheers

 

[DIRTYHARRY]

This year has seen a few great releases.

Depeche Mode - Sounds of The Universe
Morrissey - Years of Refusal
Jarvis Cocker - Further Complications
Lily Allen - It's Not Me, It's You
Madness - The Liberty of Norton Folgate

 

[lcg1]

Apart from Years Of Refusal, I would say Bob Dylan's Together Through Life.

 

[Shipwrecked Escapologist]

Apart from YOR, I think it would have to be Florence and The Machine's 'Lungs'.

From what I have heard this year this wins it for me too.

 

[Qvist]

the Maccabees - Wall of Arms

I used this thread to check out some things I didn't know, and this was an excellent discovery. Thanks!

cheers
