Agreed, and was higher in my list, but then these rankings often are fairly arbitrary from me. My favourite Beach House album is Bloom, though, but then I have spun it more times. I only got into Beach House in the past couple of years. It;s quite the band.


First time I saw them I wasn't even in college. It was 2006 and they played at MassArt in front of maybe 50 people. Such a great voice!

Reminds me of how old I'm getting, or as wife would exclaim, "How old you're getting? You're already there!" It's all relative.

I had to drive one of my children and friend yesterday and played Teen Dream in the car. It was much liked -- had got to know various Beach House from TikTok. I might say that I don't "get" TikTok, but I'm glad to see the kids getting turned on to music I like, be it via TikTok, Youtube, Sony Walkmen, 8 Track Cassettes, phonograph cylinders or that "vinyl record" thing that has been trending for some years.

Had to give my vote to Joanna Newsom but it was a close one! Sufjan, Frogg Cafe, Anathema and Yugen were all very close contenders. What a great year. A high point in my musical exploration personally as well.

However by a LONG shot, the winner of the year for me is 'Major Parkinson' with 'Songs from a Solitary Home,' one of my top 5 albums of all time.

Other great albums:
The Books - The Way out - last album by these creative indie/electronic guys, they really did interesting things with sampling.
Charming Hostess - Bowls Project - Cool concept album with unique influences
Colin Masson - Mad Monk and the Mountain - I think this has been forgotten by some since then, but not by me, a standout instrumental/symphonic folk prog album
Lucifer Was - The Crown of Creation - this heavy-prog band released a concept album backed by an orchestra, every time I hear a track from this album come up, I have to listen to the whole thing.
Meat Loaf - Hang Cool Teddy Bear - his best non-Bat album
Munly & The Lupercalians - Petr and the Wulf - showed me that country music can be good, I think Munly and his related bands ended up with a small following here for a while starting with this album.
PikaPika Teart - can echo this one, great chamber prog
RRR - Il Pittore Volante - great vocally dramatic symphonic prog
Rational Diet - On Phenomena and Existences - similar in vein to Yugen
Shining - Blackjazz - their best at their brutal jazz sound
