6 Music's take on the top 15... http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/s790szKLSc1l3n9Fqwxl9F/6-musics-albums-of-the-year-2014

 

I have 8 of these but although I like a lot of them I'm a little disappointed this year there's no clear winner for me.:?

 

Wasn't that fussed about the last War On Drugs album - is this one that good? Also, kinda related - Steve Lamacq does my head in - really affected mannerisms that cause me to switch him off every time.

Some good choices there Manji. Hookworms, Parquet Courts, Aphex Twin, Objekt and Andy Stott are all on mine.

 

I'd also include The Wytches, Run The Jewels, NehruvianDOOM, Meatbodies, Ty Segall, Fuzz, Underground Youth, Posse, Gruff Rhys and FKA Twigs.
