Music: 2013 in review

MUSIC

Happy 2014! Today marks my 7th anniversary of joining last.fm and though I normally claim the listening data on there doesn’t necessarily reflect what I’d say my favourite music over the last 12 months has been, this time round I’d say my charts are all pretty accurate.

Here’s the music I’ve enjoyed the most in 2013 (looks like it was a rather desaturated year; interesting, these matching colour schemes).

Favourite albums:

  • Editors – The Weight of Your Love
  • The National – Trouble Will Find Me

  • Sage Francis – Sick To D(EAT)H
  • The Republic of Wolves – No Matter How Narrow
  • Foals – Holy Fire
  • Alela Diane – About Farewell
  • Neko Case – The Worse Things Get, the Harder I Fight, the Harder I Fight, the More I Love You
  • Vector Lovers – Iphonica
  • Queens of the Stone Age – …Like Clockwork
  • Tegan and Sara – Heartthrob
  • Lebanon Hanover – Tomb for two
  • Zeromancer – Bye-Bye Borderline

Honourable mention to Alt-J’s 2012 album An Awesome Wave – had I listened to it when it came out, it probably would have been my album of the year for 2012.

Most enjoyable gigs I’ve attended this year:

My favourite gig to watch this year has to be The Hives at RTD – they were just amazing, so much energy and so much fun. My favourite gig to photograph was LMG’s Farewell party at the Dragon Room – awesome venue, awesome acts and an awesome night.

Happy listening in 2014 :)
