Manic street preachers - the ultra vivid lament
It’s still hitting me, hard. Can’t ask for more than that from a record.
Other records I enjoyed this year:
Billy bragg - the million things we never saw
Richard Ashcroft - acoustic hymns (enjoyed more than expected)
Paul Weller - fat pop
Snail mail - valentine

In alphabetical order, so far:
London Grammar - Californian Soil
Ryan Adams - Big Colors (actually from 2019, but well you know what happened...)
Sam Fender - Seventeen Going Under
The War on Drugs - I Don't Live Here Anymore
I still have to listen to the new Snail Mail record

Screen Violence by CHVRCHES deserves a nod. Blue Weekend by Wolf Alice Glow On by TURNSTILE Inside by Bo Burnham Yep, I loved Screen Violence too. 'Return to form' is such a cliche but as their last album didn't really click with me, it really is. I think it's their best in my opinion. |

I absolutely love, and am surprised, by Seventeen Going Under by Sam Fender though. I really fell for his music this year. He always said he owed a debt to Springsteen and as a fellow fanatic I just couldn't hear it myself in his first album. So I never got the hype.
But this album is incredible and I get the comparisons now, without him ripping off The Boss. What a gifted songwriter he is, all self written and the most authentic working class indie singer in music today. Does that thing Springsteen does great in tearing away the façade of masculinity to expose its vulnerabilities, but with a north eastern English flavour. But mainly, his songs are just heartfelt.
After years of self proclaimed 'working class hero' posers/losers like Jake Bugg, The Enemy, Kasabian, Catfish & The Bottlemen, British indie music finally has somebody who walks the walk. Brilliant album.

Brilliant album. While I enjoyed Jake Bugg's first two records and some Kasabian stuff, I totally agree I've been saying for a while now his music seems to connect with the working class in a way that's not be seen since the Arctic Monkeys as far as non-hip hop music is concerned, and he looks way more willing to embrace it than Alex Turner was |

Top 3 of the year
Steven Wilson- The Future Bites
I've said enough about this, no further
Cannibal corpse- Violence unimagined
Not only better than their previous which bored me, Inhumane Harvest saying 'global not just China' lyrically and in the video hits you in the face.
Carcass-Torn Arteries
Jeff Walker never makes a bad record, period.
