Run The Jewels - Run The Jewels 2




Great albums but in the scope of 10's will be forgotten

The War on Drugs - Lost In The Dream
Aphex Twin - Syro
Grouper - Ruins
Have a Nice Life - The Unnatural World
Mac DeMarco - Salad Days
St, Vincent - St. Vincent
Sharon Van Etten - Are We There
BADBADNOTGOOD - III
Weezer - Everything Will Be Alright In The End
Joyce Manor - Never Hungover Again
Ty Segall - Manipulator



Mediocre/bad

Angel Olsen - Burn Your Fire For No Witness
Cloud Nothings - Here and Nowhere Else
The Hotelier - Home, Like Noplace Is There
The Smashing Pumpkins - Monuments To An Elegy
Thom Yorke - Tomorrow's Modern Boxes
Morrissey - World Peace Is None Of Your Business

That's all I've heard of 2014 so far,I think I'll check out a few more albums than I'm done with 2014 albums for the time being.


If mediocre/bad means "album of the year", then yes.

I do agree with a lot of your other selections though.

I have no idea which of these will be dubbed "classics", but these are my favorites from the year so far:

1.

Burn Your Fire For No Witness by Angel Olsen

2.

Meshes Of Voice by Susanna / Jenny Hval

3.

Unflesh by Gazelle Twin

Honorable mentions:


Too Bright by Perfume Genius


Heartleap by Vashti Bunyan


II by Innercity Ensemble

I only got started listening to 2014 in the last month or two, so these rankings could change dramatically in the next few months.

I haven't really heard that many new albums because I feel that there's already too many older classic albums that I have yet to hear so I primarily focus on those but once in a while I give a 2014 album a spin and this is just my primary summary of what I've heard so far.


Here's a couple few more albums that I feel fall under that first category - albums that we'll still be talking about in 10 years - that I think you'd dig when you feel like hitting up 2014 again.


Too Bright by Perfume Genius


Unflesh by Gazelle Twin


Black Metal by Dean Blunt


Pom Pom by Ariel Pink


Metamodern Sounds In Country Music by Sturgill Simpson

edit: I think Ariel Pink's got a strong lead for artist of the decade.

- Sun Kil Moon Benji
- St. Vincent self titled
- Against Me album
