5.0 classic
Anohni and the Johnsons The Crying Light
Anohni and the Johnsons I Am A Bird Now
Billie Holiday Lady Sings The Blues
Bjork Medulla
A triumph of ambition over complacency, Medulla stands slightly apart from both what has come before and what has come after in Bjork's discography. Still challenging, still innovative, it's somewhat of a dark horse among the more readily accessible albums she has created. Still, Medulla pulses with Bjork's signature sensuality.

Lana Del Rey Paradise
A glamorously languid, slightly seedy, sun-scorched portrait of LA. Lana Del Rey's voice is a beautiful thing, and on this
particular album (EP?) it shines. It may be the end punctuation to the Born to Die saga, but it manages to be both more
consistent and more impressive than the album that precedes it.

Bjork Biophilia
An album that finds an unexpectedly beautiful middle-ground between expressive forces of nature and the rigid
confines of academia--that feels simultaneously intuitive and formal. Biophilia perhaps lays most bare the balancing act
she's been performing throughout her career as a solo artist.

HAIM Days Are Gone
For me, it's a pleasure to come across an all-female pop act whose goal seems to have been to deliver a catchy, straight-forward, well-produced album. The result: an album of solid songcraft inflected with the softer side of rock from the 80's, and surprisingly devoid of generic kiss-off tracks or pandering "girl power" tropes. That it's put forth without the current trend of trying to dress it all up in half-baked statements about modernity, fame, or "art" is only further testament to the group's focus on the music over the trappings of Twitter buzz and celebrity status.
