I was listening to Ceremonials again and already regret having FLorence and the Machine on my list. I dont' think I "get" them Although the acoustic versions of the songs on the deluxe disc are quite good.

See board regulars? It isn't that hard. I'm still waiting on some of you lazy asses. I'm holding onto my list until a lot closer to the new year. Gives me more time to process stuff (hell, I haven't even listened to the new Roots yet)

I dont' think I "get" them Although the acoustic versions of the songs on the deluxe disc are quite good. Yeah I don't really care for this album. It's tries to be so big and grandiose it ends up being a little overwhelming. It's like every song needs the big wailing Florence crescendo or huge banging drums or a massive 300 piece orchestra. What I loved about Lungs is they mixed they mixed those big moments in with much more subtlety so they had more of an impact. Ceremonials feels like an album a beating chest Celine Dion would make.

My wife listens to this album repeatedly and it eventually grew on me, but I love your description Womp.

It is that lovely time of year. I love lists to make sure I didn't miss any sleepers. It was a weird year where indie veterans made some super mediocre albums and some great up and comers made some pretty dang solid albums.
1. Shabazz Palaces - Black Up 2. Panda Bear - Tomboy 3. OPN - Replica 4. Bon Iver - Bon Iver, Bon Iver 5. A Winged Victory for the Sullen - S/T 6. Peaking Lights - 936 7. A$AP Rocky - LiveLoveA$ap 8. White Denim - D 9. araabMUZIK - Electronic Dream 10. Girls - Father, Son, Holy Ghost

5. A Winged Victory for the Sullen - S/T 6. Peaking Lights - 936 What exactly does that Peaking Lights album sound like? I've seen it pop up on a few lists so far but I know like nothing about it. And I've never even heard of a winged victory. Sounds like metal?

A Winged Victory for the Sullen is the most beautiful instrumental album I've heard in a while and is two members from Stars of the Lid. Simply stunning. The peaking lights record is a psychedelic drone album that is easy to get lost in. Pretty awesome.
