let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

2013 I had to include some non PA members to get to ten, but 2014 I'm spoiled for choice. Not even the Mogwai and Kong album reach the top 10; these bands are normally safe bets in my lists. Swans - To Be Kind (first listing of this album... I'm surprised!) :zoviet*france:* and Aerosol Mining Project - Patina Pooling Arch Garrison - I Will Be A Pilgrim David Sylvian - There's a Light That Enters Houses With No Other Houses In Sight Sonar - Static Motion Knifeworld - The Unravelling Aquaserge - A l'amitie Solarference - Jekyll and Hyde Soundtrack Secret Chiefs 3 - Ishraqiyun: Perichoresis The Moon and the Nightspirit - Holdrejtek

I decided to add the PA categories that acts are included in at PA to the list for the first part and descriptors for the out of PA ones.
- Swans - To Be Kind (Post-Rock) - Kosmischer Läufer - The Secret Cosmic Music of the East German Olympic Program 1972-83: Volume Two (Krautrock) - Electric Orange - Volume 10 (Krautrock) - Zwoyld - 200 000 (Zeuhl) - Alio Die & Sylvi Alli - Amidst the Circling Spires (Electronic) - Goat - Commune (Psych/ Space) - Bent Knee - Shiny Eyed Babies (Crossover) - Guillaume Perret & The Electric Epic - Open Me (JRF) - Aranis - Made in Belgium II (Avant Prog) - Kayo Dot - Coffins on Io (Avant Prog) - Ut Gret - Ancestors' Tale (Avant Prog) - Knifeworld - The Unravelling (Crossover Prog) - Bob Drake -Lawn Ornanments (Avant Prog) - Univers Zero - Phosphorescent Dreams (RIO) - Richard Dawson - Nothing Important (Prog Folk) - Kikagaku Moyo - Forest of Lost Children (Psych/Space) - Magma - Rïah Sahïltaahk (Zeuhl) - OOIOO - Gamel (Avant Prog) - Gong - I See You (Canterbury Scene) Not in PA bonuses (but I think relevant to music in PA): - Mica Levi - Under the Skin (Film Score, Electroacoustic, Ambient, Modern Classical, Drone) - Klaus Johann Grobe - Im Sinne der Zeit (Krautrock) - Matt Berry - Music for Insomniacs (Progressive Electronic, Ambient) - The Soundcarriers - Entropicalia (Neo-Psychedelia, Psych Pop and Psych Rock with Krautrock qualities) - Bruno Pernadas - How Can We Be Joyful in a World Full of Knowledge (Neo-Psychedelia, Space Age Art and Progressive Pop, Jazz Fusion) - Natural Snow Buildings - The Night Country (Psych/ Avant Folk, Drone) - Les Big Bird - They Worshipped Cats (Psych with Krautrock qualities -- thought it and Grobe was in PA, maybe I missed them) There are lots more that I would like to list -- strong year for me; wasn't comfortable keeping it to ten.
