These are the albums we've loved most in 2018. It's in a rough order, but to be honest this would change if you asked us to put it together again tomorrow. We're up to 50 this year because it's been a good year for our ears. Let us know if there's anything we've missed...

20. Robyn - Honey

It's been a long wait for another Robyn release. Its release is fairly late in the year means I'm not all that familiar with it yet, so who knows where it would be in this list with a bit more time. Dark dance floor grooves about love and pain. It's a...

10. Lucy Dacus - Historian

A strong year for rock that tells a story and Dacus's Historian is one of the finest examples. A musician with a philosophical outlook on life, no matter how hard it gets, Dacus can float around a story, in and out of characters and jumping th...

30. Let's Eat Grandma - I’m All Ears

An album about insecurities with not a sign of them in the delivery of the songs. I guess that's the point - insecurities are overcome and strength follows. This kept on climbing and climbing up this list. 

29. Sleep - The Sciences

Lea...

40. Nathan Bowles - Plainly Mistaken

A whole album of banjo songs, but it's a whole lot more varied than you might imagine in a mix of new and old.

39. Jenny Hval - The Long Sleep

Spacious avant-pop compositions in which the vocals and lyrics are an instrument along...

We've been busy for a while getting this one ready. This is the last single from our debut album and we're chuffed to launch it with a video made by Emily Lee.

You can also download the song for free on this here website or on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/dustycu...

*NEW STUFF*

We’re delighted to be bringing you another single, music video and live show.

This is one we’ve been looking forward to ever since we started recording our album – it was the last song to be finished for it and we’re so happy with how it turned out.

Loads of...

20. Hundred Waters - Communicating

One of my favourite bands. A unique blend of electronic and heart-felt song writing, often reaching exhilarating heights.

19. SZA - Ctrl

One hell of a debut. Lovely intimate RnB.

18. James Holden - The Animal Spirits

Jazztronica. Yeah.

17....

10. Nine inch nails - Add Violence

Didn't really expect this one, and is it an EP? Don't really care - born out of Trent Reznor's hopelessness, this thing is intense.

9. Dear Nora - Mountain Rock

8. Alvvays - Antisocialites

Such a leap forward from their last album (which...

30. (Sandy) Alex G - Rocket

Lo-fi good times.

29. Tom Rogerson with Brian Eno - Finding Shore

Nuanced, subtle ambient innit.

28. Eugene Capper & Rhodri Brooks - Pontvane

The lads down the road done good.

27. Keiichi Okabe - Nier: Automata OST

One from the land of computer gam...
