1. FKA twigs - LP1

6. Lana Del Rey - Ultraviolence

Still, how did I miss that Jenny Lewis released an album this year!?

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
Just how underrated is Bayonetta 2's soundtrack btw?

Ikr. Also I think Nito/Bayonetta was trying to get people on here to buy it a few weeks ago. #promo

Edit: Bayonetta is such like a weird thing with me tho. Like I always try and interpret her as empowering and feminist rather than degrading and misogynist but some moments in the games make it so hard :(

The way she kills the final boss in Bayo 1 alone shows she is empowering. Also she humiliates her enemies and constantly uses her sexuality to mock people.

I've been lurking GAF forever and this thread in particular since about OT4(validation took [F O R E V E R]), and y'all are easily my favorite community here. I mean, who else could keep 90% of this site completely steam roll pressed? I love it. It seemed only fitting my first post should be here.

On topic, I use 1,2, and 10. Pendulum from Twigs and Ice Princess from Azealia changed my life.

Yeah that's the good stuff but then there's like...
Jeanne's ass getting grabbed by a demon while being dragged to hell at the beginning of Bayo 2 which completely ruins the mood :(
(Bayo 2 spoilers)

I generally defend the games as I do think it's important that Bayonetta is an actually powerful female protagonist in a genre that is usually occupied by male PCs. That + Jeanne, which is a really healthy friendship between two women which is also rarely seen in games. It was another reason I loved TR2013.

Ultraviolence was disappointing
I grew to like it because I'm a fan of Lunesta Del Rey's manic depressive droning, but it was a weak follow up to Born To Die

I haven't gotten into Foxes yet

BWET slays and there isn't a single track I dislike, but there's way too much singing on it

St. Vincent was painful to sit through and feels mediocre next to a masterpiece like Strange Mercy
Prince Johnny is the only good track
Birth In Reverse is cute

UV and BWET will be in my best of tho

I'm also having a hard time putting together a Top 10 list.

It was easier last year. But then again last year we were blessed with Kanye, Bey, Vampire Weekend and Lorde.
 
Sounds pretty cool, gunna check it out when the official is up on iTunes or leaks (whichever comes first).

Also omg but small concerts like that seem really awkward just because the audience is so close and so visible (like all of their faces). If she was just a little higher off the ground/the stage started above their heads it would be better imo.

Don't let them knooooooooooow
Well now they knooooooooooooow

My favorite albums of 2014 would be:

Bombay Bicycle Club - So Long, See You Tomorrow
Real Estate - Atlas
Dum Dum Girls - Too True
Beck - Morning Phase
Lykke Li - I Never Learn
Kimbra - The Golden Echo
Cheatahs - Cheatahs
Azealia Banks - Broke With Expensive Taste
iamamiwhoami - Blue
La Roux - Trouble in Paradise

Honorable mentions: Lights - Little Machines, Electric Youth - Innerworld, Rebecca & Fiona - Beauty is Pain, Tycho - Awake, Jungle - Jungle, Betty Who - Take Me When You Go, Alpines - Oasis, Caribou - Our Love...

There were many more I've listened to, but not many of them were that memorable. 2013 was a better year for music (for me).

So did anyone listen to The Veronicas' new album?

I'm listening to it right now! The tongue-in-cheek dubstep in the second track was a bit... unexpected. Let's hope the rest of the album delivers.

That photo of Ariana is probably the first photo in ages where she doesn't look like a pre-programmed Lolita fembot (i.e. she is actually showing some emotions, lmao).

Who's next in the condiment aisle, DJ Ketchup?

I just googled DJ Mustard because I didn't know anything about him, except for those songs he produced. I was a bit surprised to see that his real name is...

well.

Dijon.

Not gonna lie, he's witty for that one, lol.
