Tastily depressing cherry. Pure comfort!

Thank your lucky stars and Beach House for giving two of the year's most beautiful albums. To compare, this one might be slightly more experimental than "Depression Cherry", like the surprisingly minimalist "All Your Yeahs", but not much.

Fragile, haunting and dark as the album cover is black & white!

Pretty much nothing like what a honeymoon should be. Even more than her previous album, Lana Del Rey aims for a mystic, atmospheric set of songs that isn't exactly cheery! Not quite as melodic as she can be, but solid nonetheless.

Ahh... gloomy stuff, very ghostly. The perfect ambient winter album!

Fragile piano drops and some guy yearning in the background... it's everything melancholic ambient should be!

Mathilde Falch tries with a darker and more atmospheric approach. In the middle, however, you find her most party-minded track to date, "Ild i Min Røg" (or in English, "Fire in My Smoke"... weird title)!

Favourite tracks: "Det Jeg Ville Se" & "Stikkende Savn"

The kind of autumnal sort of classical somewhat ambient film score-like music that always pleases the ears when you're in a sufficiently melancholic mood!

9. (8) Down 1
This album is all about that bass, no treble (nobody saw that pun coming). Very bubblegummy and not that crazily deep, but it's got nice retro vibes and is generally a positive listen. Heck, I even tried to dislike it, especially because of the persistent chorus of "All About That Bass", but something this inoffensive could only offend me for a while before it eventually won me over!

Favourite tracks: "All About That Bass" & "Dear Future Husband"

A beautiful, but very quiet affair by Sufjan Stevens. Undeniably pleasant though!
