| 10 |  | Tom Rogerson with Brian Eno
Finding Shore
A late arrival in this year but a welcome one! I still need time for really have a good listen to this one but I'm confident it deserve a place in the top 10. |
| 9 |  | Stevens / Dessner / Muhly / McAlister
Planetarium
Really interesting collaboration. one of the most underrated albums of this year. |
| 8 |  | The Mountain Goats
Goths
All the classic Darnielle's lyrics whit good production. I really don't miss the lo-fi shitty sound of the past. |
| 7 |  | Leprous
Malina
I hoped that Leprous would have experimented a little more. Even though it's really good I think they can do even better. I'll wait for their next works. |
| 6 |  | Queens of the Stone Age
Villains
Not as good as ...Like Clockwork but I liked it. |
| 5 |  | Ulver
The Assassination of Julius Caesar
Ulver... they can do anything. I expect the next album will be a christian rap album and it will be still great :) |
| 4 |  | Brand New
Science Fiction
Perhaps as good as Devil and God, I don't have anything else to say about this. |
| 3 |  | Igorrr
Savage Sinusoid
After 5 year of waiting Igorrr delivers is follow up to Hallelujah, one of my favorite albums of all time. Savage sinusoid is perhaps a little less crazy than his predecessor but it's still an excellent album. |
| 2 |  | Mastodon
Cold Dark Place
I wasn't crazy about Emperor Of Sand which is a good album but it's a bit generic i think, Cold Dark place is all that Mastodon can do. It's only flaw is that it's too short. |
| 1 |  | Flotation Toy Warning
The Machine That Made Us
Great album, I wrote a review about this so I'm not gonna blabberig here :) |
