TOP ALBUM 2021 №4 – Echoes in the Valley | Sophie Hutchings 

GENRE: NEOCLASSICAL

this album reminds me a bit of ‘Night’ by Ola Gjeilo, which is a very good thing. it’s less “night” and more “morning”, though. put on “Promise of Sun” and you’ll see what i mean.

very good album for just chilling; has a Windham Hill vibe.

TOP ALBUM 2021 №5 – Memory Sketches II | Tim Linghaus 

GENRE: NEOCLASSICAL
BANDCAMP: timlinghaus.bandcamp.com/album

i really liked both of Tim Linghaus’s previous Memory Sketches albums and this is more of the same, which i don’t think is a bad thing. it feels a little more polished which makes it hard for me to say anything interesting about it, because i just put it on and am kind of carried away. “Maybe More Than You Knew” is a great sample of what this is like.

TOP ALBUM 2021 №6 – Who Am I? | Pale Waves 

GENRE: POP PUNK

this is an extremely lesbian album and i like it because i am extremely lesbian. it’s like early Avril Lavigne crossed with the Cranberries and singing about being gay for your girlfriend. “Tomorrow” might be my favourite track and “You Don’t Own Me” goes way harder than it has any right to with that title and chorus.

TOP ALBUM 2021 №7 – Happier Than Ever | Billie Eilish 

GENRE: ALTERNATIVE POP

this album is a *bit* of a mixed bag, and billie definitely has a particular sense of humour, so if you don’t “get” it then you won’t get it, especially since this album is less dancey than the previous one. my favourite tracks are “Lost Cause” and “Happier Than Ever”.

TOP ALBUM 2021 №8 – DEACON | serpentwithfeet 

GENRE: ALTERNATIVE R&B
BANDCAMP: serpentwithfeet.bandcamp.com/a

again. it’s a new serpentwithfeet album. in an ordinary year this would be like №3.

i don’t think this is the strongest work serpentwithfeet has done, but it feels very confident and sure of itself, which i appreciate. “Sailors’ Superstition” is my favourite track, and “Fellowship” is also very good.

TOP ALBUM 2021 №9 – Blue Weekend | Wolf Alice 

GENRE: ALTERNATIVE ROCK

wolf alice released a new album in 2021 and it’s *only* №9?? that should tell you something about the quality of music this year.

this is a perfectly cromulent album. i don’t like it *as much* as ‘Visions of a Life’, but ‘Visions of a Life’ is a pretty tough act to beat so no hard feelings there. the sequence from “Play the Greatest Hits” (just trust me on this one) onward is definitely the strongest point of the album, and “Feeling Myself” and “The Last Man On Earth” are probably my favourite songs.

TOP ALBUM 2021 №10 – Trip Tape | Milky Chance 

GENRE: INDIE POP

i got into Milky Chance at the *very* beginning and honestly did not expect them to go anywhere. their second album was kind of disappointing i·m·o and they were always kind of… indie frat boy music??

anyway their third album came out in 2019 and it completely blew me away. now in 2021 they’ve released this album of (mostly) covers and demos and look. it’s a really good album of covers and demos. i’m a big fan of their renditions of both “Tainted Love” and “La Noche De Anoche”, and the remix of Colorado gets a shoutout for being much better than the original.
