My Top 25 Best/Favorite Albums of 2015 This is the most Pop - TopicsExpress



          

My Top 25 Best/Favorite Albums of 2015 This is the most Pop oriented Best of the Year Ive ever committed to, with my #1 surprising ME when I realized I had to gulp and commit to it, just because its true (and truly great). 1. SAM SMITH ~ In The Lonely Hour 2. tune-yards ~ Nikki Nack 3. Foo Fighters ~ Sonic Highways 4. Ryan Adams ~ Ryan Adams 5. Bob Mould ~ Beauty and Ruin 6. Original Cast ~ Fun Home 7. Fred Hersch Trio ~ Floating 8. Ben Kweller ~ X 9. Drive-By Truckers ~ English Oceans 10. Great Caesar ~ Great Caesar Although theyve just missed my Top 10, because theyve gotten so little love I also need to commit that my #11 and #12 are: 11. U2 ~ Songs of Innocence 12. Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga ~ Cheek to Cheek More of the most pop-prominent list Ive ever had reason to commit to: 13. Melissa Etheridge ~ This Is M.E. 14. Nico & Vinz ~ Black Star Elephant 15. Mary Lambert ~ Heart On My Sleeve 16. Taylor Swift ~ 1989 17. Bears Den ~ Islands Now if we had gotten vocals of this quality from the entirely overrated boy bands posing as folk revivalists like the Avett Brothers and Mumford & Sons, maybe I wouldnt feel so alienated from that whole trend. These vocals are glorious - rich, nuanced, ranging from intense and quiet to backhandedly explicit. 18. Original Cast ~ Hedwig and the Angry Inch 19. Lucas Miré Lucas Miré ~ HEYDAY 20. Big Freedia ~ Just Be Free 21. Owen Pallette ~ In Conflict 22. Sia ~ 1000 Forms of Fear 23. Barr Brothers ~ Sleeping Operator 24. Future Islands ~ Singles 25. The 2 The 2 Bears ~ The Night Is Young Honorable Mentions (alphabetically) (so far, more to come) Against Me! ~ Transgender Dysphoria Blues Bad Suns ~ Language & Perspective Kristin Chenoweth ~ Coming Home Dangelo & The Vanguard ~ Black Messiah Hercules & Love Affair ~ The Feast Of The Broken Heart Kiesza ~ Sound of a Woman Perfume Genius ~ Too Bright I admit it was not a great year for me to access heaps of new albums, and I welcome suggestions for what I missed (no RadioPlay or HeadCold, please).
