Continuing my list:
40. Blood Orange - Essex Honey
Dev Hynes continues his string of fascinating, thematically dense pop records.
39. Nick León - A Tropical Entropy
Drenched with aquatic-sounding reverb and echo, this record provides a late-night soundtrack.
38. Geese - Getting Killed
One of the most bizarre, yet thoroughly entertaining, rock albums this year.
37. Rocket - R Is For Rocket
Rocket wear their 90s alt-rock influences on their sleeve, but it never feels like pastiche.
36. Die Spitz - Something To Consume
The Austin quartet skillfully blends elements of grunge, alternative rock, punk, and noise, maintaining a delicate balance among these genres.
35. Blawan - SickElixer
Dark, cavernous, unforgiving techno.
34. Lifeguard - Ripped and Torn
A breathtaking rush of post-punk fury.
33. Double Virgo - Shakedown
Sam Fenton and Jezmi Tarik Fehmi, moonlighting from their band, bar italia, collect a ramshackle group of songs that recall the laconic sounds of Pavement and The Replacements.
32. Oneohtrix Point Never - Tranquilizer
Using a treasure trove of commercial sample CDs, Daniel Lopatin builds haunting and immersive new worlds.
31. Ghost Mountain - October Country
I'm always a sucker for some good witch house.
