Bon Iver For Emma, Forever Ago
Wow. Just wow. The first time I heard this, it ripped my heart straight out of my chest. And it keeps doing it every time I let it out for another spin. For Emma, Forever Ago (even the title makes me want to cry because of its beauty) is possibly the most intimate and fragile piece of work ever recorded. Let it overwhelm you, because it's really worth it.

The Clash The Clash
The Clash London Calling
My favorite album of all time. Both musically and lyrically perfect in every way. It's a glorious mess of punk, rock 'n roll, ska, reggae, jazz, pop and everything else, while still undoubtedly sounding only like The Clash. After all, they're the only guys who could ever have pulled this off. London Calling is the ultimate victory of music lovers and enthusiasts all over the world, represented by The Only Band That Matters.

The Rolling Stones Exile on Main St.
We all know the backstory to Exile on Main St.: the Stones were practically banned from the UK and took refuge in the mansion of Keith and his girlfriend, located in Villefranche-sur-Mer, France. Here, what's probably the biggest jam session in history took place and the result is this absolute mammoth of a double album. Now, while the backstory really helped Exile to reach mythical proportions, it wouldn't have reached this mythical status if the album itself wasn't any less than a masterpiece. But rest assured: it is. Exile is a true Keith album; little experimentation in the - then - hip genres, but it's the culmination of all great "roots genres": fast paced rock'n'roll, danceable boogiewoogie, steaming blues, chill-out jazz and religious soul. Even though the hits are found on other Stones albums, every song here is a stone-cold classic. Furthermore, it hasn't aged one tiny bit. Simply put, Exile on Main St. is the wildest, most adventurous ride you can experience in one measely hour.

Probably the most beautiful and fragile sounding record of the year. From the Portishead-like "Soldier" to the dreary soundscapes of "8 November" and "The Cheapest Soundtrack", the album is a musical trip that doesn't last a second too long. Like Bon Iver's "For Emma", this album is best consumed during a rainy afternoon, while enjoying the gentle warmth coming from the fireplace.

Boys Noize Oi Oi Oi
One of the best electronic albums of the last decade. Boys Noize creates a boiling musical atmosphere packed with electronic hooks, ferocious beats, and melodic interludes that serve as a resting point between the violent sounds. Even better, he did it using authentic analogue synthesisers instead of playing around with some computer program. Oh, and he can write a decent pop song too (his Feist remix).

dEUS Vantage Point
The fifth dEUS album is nothing more than a masterpiece. By focusing their sound, there is apparently no crazy mixing of different genres anymore. However, the arrangements of songs like 'Favourite Game', 'Slow' or 'When She Comes Down' are on par with the magic of The National - to take an almost universally loved band as an example. The record will not take you by storm on first listen; but after each consecutive listen, it's the little details that keep popping up (the voice of Karin Dreijer!) that will get you addicted. Just try it!

dEUS The Ideal Crash
dEUS No More Loud Music
This compilation contains all the early 90's singles from Belgian superstars dEUS. From the chaotic rock of "Suds 'n Soda" and "Via", over the experimental In a Bar, Under the Sea singles, to arguably the most beautiful ballad ever written ("Nothing Really Ends"), No More Loud Music gives a chronological overview of dEUS' early career and it serves as a superb starting point for anyone interested in the band.
dEUS Keep You Close
Looks like they've done it again: Keep You Close, dEUS' 6th, is a magnificent album (it could very well be called a true masterpiece), and one that should be heard by as many people as possible. Perhaps the best alternative rock album to have come out in 2011, it's also another highlight for a 20 year old band of experienced professionals, who keep coming up with absolutely splendid material. 36 listens in and it keeps getting better and better.

The definite compilation/best of in the Ramones' catalogue. Especially the first CD (spanning the first four albums) is mind-blowing, and has aged very well. It seems that whether you're a fan of metal, punk, generic rock, 60's pop or any other genre, you will still like the Ramones. Or, to put it very simple: if you don't like the Ramones, you don't like rock music.

The Clash The Singles
As a singles collection, you get the obvious stuff. But listening to this CD and hearing the progression from the first punk anthems, to the later reggae, rock, pop and even hip-hop ('The Magnificent Seven') experiments, you realise why The Clash was such an influential band. Also - and this is very rare among modern rock bands who start to experiment with different genres - it never sounds forced; you only hear 'the sound of The Clash' and that's a great part of why they were called 'The only band that matters'.

The Jam Sound Affects
The Jam All Mod Cons
The Jam In The City
The first album of mod legends The Jam. Here, you hear the trio in their rawest form, as the album was recorded during the '77 punk era. Just listening to the 1-2-3-4 intro of 'Art School', you know you're in for a hell of a ride. Each track comes at you at a blistering speed; the lyrics are fun but also intelligent. Top tracks include the title track, 'Art School', 'I've Changed My Address', the Batman-tune (which they did as a hommage to The Who), and just about everything else. The only thing that makes album not as good as their third 'All Mod Cons' is that the songs are not so coherent on this record at times. But don't let this fact fool you that this doesn't deserve the five-out-of-five threatment, as punk music rarely comes better than this.

Trentemoller The Trentemoller Chronicles
The Chronicles presented are a package consisting of two discs. The first is a continuous mix in the typical Trentemoller style, which means he takes you on a musical journey, packed with emotional highlights ('Forest', a live version of 'Snowflake' and his remix of his own tune 'Moan'). The second disc, on the other hand, is a collection of the various remixes he has done over the years, of which his reworking of Royksopp's 'What Else is There?' is obviously his best. Esssential for Scandinavian techno and ambient enthousiasts.

Black Box Revelation Set Your Head On Fire
Jan Paternoster and Dries Van Dijck form The Black Box Revelation, a 2 piece consisting of guitar, vocals and drums. By the example of The White Stripes and The Black Keys, they play steaming blues rock with the uptempo, somewhat harder songs ('I Think I Like It', 'Love Is On My Mind', 'Set Your Head On Fire') alternating the more mellow and poppy songs (the brilliant 'Never Alone, Always Together'). Terrific as a live act, but on the album there are some experimental missteps ('Misery Box') that bring the whole down. Nevertheless, this is a more than solid debut from these youthful characters.
Black Box Revelation Silver Threats
The follow up to Set Your Head On Fire. On this second album, The Black Box Revelation refines their sound, but the formula for succes stays the same: hard rockers ('High On A Wire', 'Better Get In Touch With The Devil', 'Run Wild',...) and sweet ballads ('Sleep While Moving' and 'Our Town Has Changed For Years Now') are the name of the game here. Rough around the edges, but the subtle progress in song structure and sound promises that we can expect a lot more to come from these lads.

Probably the best album that Hospital Records has released so far (and that's saying a lot). The great thing about Tony Colman is that he doesn't rely on the same drum pattern over and over, and that he mixes sometimes about a dozen different styles into one track. Highlights include 'Bare Religion', 'All Hell is Breaking Loose', 'Attack Ships on Fire' and the single 'Just One Second'.

Soulwax Any Minute Now
A seamless blend of rock and electronica. After two straightforward rock albums, the Dewaele brothers started their 2ManyDJs project, which had a great influence on this third album. The tracks give equal showplay to the guitars and the synths, resulting in a somewhat chaotic mix at times. But then again, creating chaos is what the Dewaeles do best. Top tracks include the title track, 'NY Excuse', 'E Talking' and 'Miserable Girl'.
Soulwax Nite Versions
After their third album, Any Minute Now, Soulwax decides to go full-electronic. And what better way to do this, than create a complete reworking of that album for the dancefloor? That's basically what this album is: a Soulwax remix of Any Minute Now. And it's brilliant. Soulwax has released some of the best remixes ever made (see also their Most of the Remixes album) and they don't let down here. Each track is mixed onto the others, to create a booming party set, which will have you jumping up and down in front of your stereo in no time. But although the major sounds on this record include "bleep" and "zwoing", after close listening you can still hear (and feel) the rock spirit in the tracks.
Soulwax Most Of The Remixes...
This compilation contains some of the best remixes made ever. The first disc is utterly essential for any serious house DJ and the second disc could be a strong contender for the title of 'Best Mix Of All Time', if it weren't for the fact that the As Heard On Radio Soulwax series is still slightly better. Trivia: it has the world record for longest album title ever, also.

St. Lucia marks the nearing of winter's end. Across the six unashamedly euphoric pop songs, bucket-loads of angel-like voices and extremely sunny synthesizer sounds are layered on top of each other. The end result is a delightfully happy-go-lucky and warm-hearted affair. Recommended if you like: fun.

Easily one the best - if not THE best - pop-punk records. Each track gets you in a great mood to party or to smash things up (for the more delinquent among us). They also prove that using a synthesizer as a prominent instrument doens't make the tracks weaker as a result (see 'I Gotta Getta' or the brilliant single 'Here Comes The Summer'). Oh, the remastered CD-version gives you the original 14-track LP and 17 (!) bonus tracks, including the punk anthems 'Teenage Kicks' and 'Get Over You' and a funny song about a Mars candy bar, named 'Mars Bars' (appropriate).In other words, if you are a punk or pop fan, get this ASAP!

His best outing to date, and the start of a very promising series.

Boys Noize Power
Evolving from the electro/trash side of the musical spectrum to a more refined, techno sound, Boys Noize's second album is not as instantly accessible as his first. He can, however, still produce a great deal of bangers ('Starter', 'Jeffer', 'Nott') that will keep the club kids happy and energetic.

BRNS Wounded
A very impressive debut with lots of imagination. Like a perfect mix between the best aspects of Battles and Alt-J, Wounded is one of more relaxing and playful albums you'll hear all year. That's not to say that BRNS' (pronounce "brains") debut is whithout its flaws - a little bit of extra attention would've done songs like "Our Lights" or "Here Dead He Lies" good - but don't let that stop you from checking out this wonderful piece of alternative pop music.

Camo and Krooked Above & Beyond
Ranging from liquid funk to hard drumstep and everything in between, this debut from Austria's Camo & Krooked has everything to get the party going. They were recently signed to Hospital Records, so we can expect more earcandy from these guys pretty soon.

Digitalism Idealism
Coming from Berlin, the modern capital of techno music, and owing a great deal to Daft Punk, obviously Digitalism has the right background to make a smashing club album. But instead of creating some shallow bangers (I'm looking at you, Justice), they produce an album with actual SONGS on it, albeit songs that are extremely danceable. This lifts Digitalism from their contemporaries, as you can enjoy this album equally while listening to it on the dancefloor or in your living room.

Goose (BEL) Bring It On
A rock group who decides to turn their attention to electronica, where have we heard that before? But the result is an at times wonderful nu-rave (Goose would hate this term) album. Tracks like 'Black Gloves', 'British Mode', 'Check' and especially the title track should tear a filled dancefloor apart. Insanely catchy also.

Gossip Standing In The Way Of Control
Yes, Beth Ditto is fat! But she can sing, and how! Her voice, combined with the electro-punk music that's aggressive, groovy, funky and at times even soulful, is the recipe that makes this album an excellent one. You know, when you listen to a record in your CD-player or on your iPod, you don't actually see the artist, so it's rather ludicrous to write a singer down, just because she doesn't have a pretty face (or body).

Herve Ghetto Bass
Herve drops a double party mix, one for the rave and fidget people and one for the dub minded. The first is basically a promo mix for his own tracks as Herve operates under about 20 other different aliases. They are not very distinguishable from one another however. This lack in diversity is made up for on the second disc, thankfully. All-in-all ideal party material.

The Vaccines Come of Age
The content of The Vaccines' second album is exactly what you would expect from looking at the title of the record: a step up in almost every way. The songs on Come Of Age are more interesting musically, better lyrically and more fleshed out than the ones on the debut from last year. The album is not flawless however, as filler tracks do detract from the quality of the (soon to be) singles. Nevertheless, Come Of Age is a very enjoyable half hour listen and a sign that we may expect some great things from these young fellas.

This EP is the first American release for The Black Box Revelation.

Nevertheless, the EP is a solid introduction to the band and the title track gives high hopes for their upcoming third album, scheduled for release on October 3.

Claro Intelecto Warehouse Sessions
Warehouse Sessions collects ten of the best club bangers Claro Intelecto has produced to date; 'Thieves' and 'Momento' being particularly notable. However, lumped together, things start to get a bit too samey over the course of one hour of playing length. This makes these tracks much more suited for the clubs, then, than for intricate home listening sessions.

This is a rather enjoyable debut, but Blakes' voice doesn't have the emotional impact of a Justin Vernon or Nebraska-era Springsteen (my 2 favorite singer-songwriters) and the beats miss the warmth of the compositions of a Four Tet. In fact, the album comes off as rather cold and emotionless and it's this that keeps me from really embracing it.

The Hickey Underworld I'm Under The House, I'm Dying
The second effort by The Hickey Underworld is in some ways a step forward (more thought out and focused), but at the same time it loses the appealling rawness of the debut. Ultimately, the boys are still developing their sound which results in 'I'm Under The House, I'm Dying' being a slightly underdeveloped and not completely satisfying album.
