The Newcomers

? Diamond Jubilee - Cindy Lee

This album is a must listen. Probably the best lo-fi album in decades!

? Light Verse - Iron & Wine
The Contenders
11 Prelude to Ecstasy - The Last Dinner Party

The best indie album of the year so far. The influences are very well digested and the songwriting is excellent.

12 Invincible Shield - Judas Priest

The gods of heavy metal are back with a rocking new album! They've been one of the most defining heavy metal acts for more than 50 years now and it's amazing to hear that they're still absolutely kicking ass today when most bands of their era are not aging that well or have retired. Rob Halford is aging like fine wine and hasn't lost his vocal power and versatility IN THE SLIGHTEST, which is amazing considering he's now 72 years old. Glenn Tipton is still an amazing guitarist who delivers head-banging riffs and blistering solos alongside Richie Faulkner, who is replacing KK Downing with dignity. This album will likely go down as one of Priest's best albums alongside 'British Steel', 'Screaming for Vengeance' and 'Painkiller'. Welcome back Judas Priest! And keep on rocking!

13 Bright Future - Adrianne Lenker

Adrianne Lenker is one of the most gifted singer-songwriters of her generations. This is probably the best album of the year so far! Thank you Adrianne!

14 Time - Infected Rain
15 Only God Was Above Us - Vampire Weekend

Such a great return to form for Vampire Weekend. I really love the instrumentation on each song and it looks like Ezra Koenig and his peers are at their most creative again ever since Rostam's departure. Definitely one of the best albums of the year and totally worth the 5-year wait! Welcome back guys!

Definitely one of if not the best album of this year so far, lots of creative ideas here, especially with the instrumentation. It's also great that Fantano loves it as much as I do.

16 Orquídeas - Kali Uchis
17 It's Sorted - Cheekface
18 Two Star and the Dream Police - Mk.gee
19 Loss of Life - MGMT

MGMT are back with another great album.

20 I Got Heaven - Mannequin P****

This album really goes hard! One of the best rock albums of the year for sure.

21 Battle Ballads - Týr
22 Pinball - Mike & Tony Seltzer
23 Eternal Sunshine - Ariana Grande
24 Parallel Realms - STRFKR

STRFKR are aging like fine wine. This is probably their best album yet. All the best elements of their music, and then some.

25 Maze Envy - Civerous
