We’ve had veterans dipping into the solo world, seasoned mainstays releasing some of the best work of their career and, always most excitingly, brand new bands unleashing truly impressive debuts. 2014 has been undoubtedly another strong year so far, and Live4ever has once again picked out just a handful of albums for us all to revisit and reflect on as an all-too fleeting summer homes into view. The variety is striking; from the ‘true joy and genius of great punk music’ found in OFF’s ‘Wasted Years’, to the ‘haunting, tragic air’ of ‘I Can Learn’, and the majestic under-the-radar first release from Vikesh Kapoor which dispays ‘the real America, its majesty and pride never so honestly depicted’. All this and much more is waiting in the latest edition of Live4ever’s Essential Listening series. Live4ever’s Essential Listening is here to share, not preach! An interactive celebration of rock and roll where your favourites can contribute. Make sure your stand-out albums of the year so far get a deserved mention by leaving a comment below. Check it out: Live4ever Ezine

Great to see The Crookes as No. 14. They probably won't be big, but such a good band. I've seen them 4 times - London Calling (twice - balcony session and in Paradiso), Instore session and in Bitterzoet.
Also I wasn't very impressed with The Rifles new album, but really loved their first album and they're fantastic live. I recommend anyone on here to go to see them if you ever have a chance.
Edit: I just remembered why I didn't go to see The Crookes in the end of May cos I was at The Rifles gig on the same day when The Crookes played in an another venue.
