So these there are just some loose genre/description categories to describe these albums and those include subcategories. It may be more of an element to music in the album. Of course albums can overlap in genres and be very loosely included under a master label. I'm not claiming that there are the most representative examples for the labels or the best labels to describe the albums, but that there are those qualities (or those qualities from certain subgenres). I did get a little creative for X with Xeuhl (aka Xylophone Zeuhl). I might well do another with a different set of labels. All albums I really like, of course. I hope to make a playlist later. Please try to vote for one and don't worry if that's all you know. Or suggest your own labels and acts. Doesn't matter much to me what is done with the topic or how you approach it.

Alt. Rock: Radiohead - OK Computer
Baroque Pop: Weyes Blood - And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow

Nick Drake.
Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

Yé-yé is my jam.

Also, Zeuhl and Xeuhl are duplicates. I'd suggest Zouk as a better alternative for the token "Z" genre.
