Interesting to revisit this a year on. 2013 was responsible for so many great albums, and as of this moment I'd probably say the best are...

1. Mark Kozelek & Jimmy Lavalle - Perils from the Sea
2. Darkside - Psychic
3. Kevin Gates - The Luca Brasi Story
4. Thundercat - Apocalypse
5. Forest Swords - Engravings

6. Steve Arrington & DāM-FunK - Higher
7. Beyoncé - Beyoncé
8. Pantha du Prince - Elements of Light
9. My Bloody Valentine - mbv
10. Oneohtrix Point Never - R Plus Seven

11. Iceage - You're Nothing
12. DJ Rashad - Double Cup
13. Chance the Rapper - Acid Rap
14. Jonwayne - Rap Album One
15. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Push the Sky Away

16. Logos - Cold Mission
17. Föllakzoid - II
18. Mazzy Star - Seasons of Your Day
19. The Wayne Shorter Quartet - Without a Net
20. Serengeti - Kenny Dennis LP

Looks pretty different to how I remember my year chart looking in January.

EDIT: Figured I'd hit up a 2012 list too, seeing as I'm bored...

1. Kendrick Lamar - good kid, m.A.A.d city
2. John Talabot - ƒIN
3. Action Bronson & Party Supplies - Blue Chips
4. Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Mature Themes
5. The Congos, Sun Araw & M. Geddes Gengras - Icon Give Thank

6. Fiona Apple - The Idler Wheel...
7. Laurel Halo - Quarantine
8. Sharon Van Etten - Tramp
9. Flying Lotus - Until the Quiet Comes
10. Parquet Courts - Light Up Gold

Serengeti
Steve Arrington & DaM-FunK
Fire! Orchestra

I enjoyed my 2013 rap more than my 2014, I have less rap acts in my top 20 this year. Haven't heard all the rights records possibly.

2013:

The big differences with mine are the existence of Stitches by Califone, which I didn't know existed until right at the end of the year, and the William Onyeabor comp now at #1.

5.

The Invisible Way by Low

4.

Stitches by Califone

3.

Loud City Song by Julia Holter

2.

Perils From The Sea by Mark Kozelek & Jimmy Lavalle

1.

World Psychedelic Classics 5: Who Is William Onyeabor? by William Onyeabor


And following Skinny's lead...

2012:

5.

Wixiw by Liars

4.

Quakers by Quakers

3.

Among The Leaves by Sun Kil Moon

2.

The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than The Drive...iona Apple

1.

A Church That Fits Our Needs by Lost In The Trees

My 2012 chart has been in a constant state of flux. While the above have remained in the top 10 since the start, Half Way Home by Angel Olsen, Wind Hand Caught In The Door by South South Million, Heaven by The Walkmen, and a handful of others could easily jump into the top 5 on any given day.
