December 18, 201311 yr Author 49 Big TV White Lies 3-5-4-9-15 ◤ ✝ ◥ 15 Big TV ◤ ✝ ◥ A bit of a step down from their previous records which shows in the YE chart as well. 2009's To Lose My Life finished at #42 and Ritual was #36 of 2011. The album is good for a few listens but is generally rather forgettable and doesn't grab your attention. -ginZHdA_f8
December 18, 201311 yr Author 48 The 20/20 Experience 2 of 2 Justin Timberlake 4-5-7-7-7-13 ◤ ✝ ◥ 11 Amnesia ◤ ✝ ◥ Two albums in one year yay go Justin! This one was a nice effort but for me it lacked some oomph that was more present on the first installment of his 20/20 series. Amnesia is fabulous though. 6oH9ndz_fqE
December 18, 201311 yr Author 47 No Ceremony No Ceremony/// 5-5-7-8-11-11-12 ◤ ✝ ◥ 26 HeartBreaker 17 PartOfMe ◤ ✝ ◥ The album captured attention and lasted for a couple of weeks before getting a bit dull and sounding just not as fresh. Sadness. JUpXXfI2_4s
December 18, 201311 yr Author 46 Brennisteinn EP Sigur Rós 7-10-15-15-15 ◤ ✝ ◥ 22 Brennisteinn ◤ ✝ ◥ Sigur Rós' short EP from the beginning of 2013 is next. Its title track was perfect to convey the spirit of the record and ease everyone into their next album which was by the way pretty damn good. The remaining two tracks are calm and atmospheric. All in all, a very Sigur Rós-esque record. Oc6zXSdYXm8
December 18, 201311 yr Author 45 Britney Jean Britney Spears 4-4-6-10 ◤ ✝ ◥ 19 Work Bitch! 06 Perfume 14 Body Ache ◤ ✝ ◥ Britney's latest almost-eponymously titled record is at #45, only 2 places higher than its predecessor Femme Fatale finished in the 2011 chart and a whopping 23 places lower than Circus' 22nd position finish in 2008. The album was hit and miss. Perfume undoubtedly the best track on the album and of the last 6 years of Britney's career, was enough to keep me interested in the album but in the end it couldn't hold the entire thing and when the initial euphoria from the amazingness of Body Ache had passed, there was no way but to delete the album off my playlist. _rxgp7TJhUE
December 18, 201311 yr Author 44 The Nextwave Sessions EP Bloc Party 1-3-8-13 ◤ ✝ ◥ 09 Ratchet 22 French Exit 18 Montreal 27 Obscene ◤ ✝ ◥ My favourite band. Oh, how sad to accept this EP was actually pretty crap. Please come back though. This can't be the end of legendary Bloc Party, especially now that Kele's solo material has turned dull and crap.

December 18, 201311 yr Pavel still massively jealous that I saw Bloc Party's last EVER gig in July. :P Anyway great to see "Brennisteinn" here - absolutely the best thing they've put out in years.

December 18, 201311 yr Author 40 Bitter Rivals Sleigh Bells 5-5-5-11 ◤ ✝ ◥ 07 Bitter Rivals ◤ ✝ ◥ Sleigh Bells' third album is closing the Top 40 of 2013. The title track managed to crack the Top 10 in the songs chart during the year making it their first ever Top 10 having previously not managed to do it with Infinity Guitars which is ironically considered their best track to-date. Their second album, Reign of Terror, only managed to finish at #42 in last year's overall chart which is also a bit confusing because this record is undoubtedly better than their sophomore LP. With the new album we could see the revival of the original Sleigh Bells which was a very good sign. However, it still felt a bit too polished and watered down as opposed to Treats' raw and fresh energy which made it #8 album of 2010. Cr-ahiFDkts
December 18, 201311 yr Author 39 Days Are Gone Haim 4-3-6-9-9-11 ◤ ✝ ◥ 33 Falling 27 My Song 5 ◤ ✝ ◥ Nice record but I'm not exactly rushing to listen to it again and again. My Song 5 and Falling are very nice but I don't even remember how other songs go. aF4FcTcWcDE

December 18, 201311 yr Author 37 Settle Disclosure 8-5-6-9-10-11-13-14 ◤ ✝ ◥ 06 White Noise (feat. AlunaGeorge) 01 Confess To Me (feat. Jessie Ware) ◤ ✝ ◥ A generally rather samey and generic album apart from a few songs and singles. Confess To Me, which spent 3 weeks at #1 in my chart, is an absolute STOMPER and basically dragged this album on its shoulders into the Top 40! Despite Jessie Ware being generally too mellow (in a bad way) and boring, she can deliver some CHOONS, that's for sure! 7MfLZM7kvy0
December 18, 201311 yr Author 36 Slow Focus Fuck Buttons 4-5-8-11-14 ◤ ✝ ◥ 06 Stalker ◤ ✝ ◥ First of all, this album has like one of the best covers of the year. Simple, effective, memorable *.* The album is as raw and fabulous as f*** Buttons can be. Tarot Sport finished 27th in the 2009 album list, so it shows they still haven't lost it. yay pT6f8gVS5jw
December 18, 201311 yr Author 35 Exile Hurts 2-4-6-8-12-9-14 ◤ ✝ ◥ 03 The Road 28 Somebody to Die For 21 Exile 16 Miracle 11 Sandman ◤ ✝ ◥ After not really feeling their debut album, I didn't really have a lot of hope for this one. But after I saw the trailer and heard The Road everything changed. It is amazing and grabbed my attention instantly! The LP has a few highlights and duds but overall it's a very nice listen, although feels even less mature than their debut record, and it probably should be the other way round. 7KwLYJVWYA8

December 18, 201311 yr Author 33 Ingen Kan Love Dig I Morgen Rasmus Seebach 5-8-8-9-10-11-13 ◤ ✝ ◥ 06 Tusind Farver ◤ ✝ ◥ Cheesy Danish pop. Rasmus went to basics now that he pretty much cemented his celebrity status in Denmark. His first album was pop at its best - polished, smart and only consisted of about 40% of cheese (therefore it finished 15th in the best of 2010 list) while this album has about 70% of cheese and is a bit too tame. Won't be mentioning his 2nd album, Mer' end kærlighed, he released 2 years ago, as it's so crap I don't even want to waste time. Ingen Kan Love Dig I Morgen has a track that saves the whole thing from being #67 on this list and its name is Tusind Farver, a PERFECT Eurovision song that never was (or never will be :cry: ). qL0Su5DKXjQ
