This year My Bloody Valentine came back, Josh Homme brought an epic record and Thom Yorke made us dance like we were crazy with AMOK, but my personal favorite record of the year 2013 is none other than this beauty:

Apocalypse
by Thundercat (BRAINFEEDER)
So many great songs, so many weird sounds, so sci-fi! and those falsettos, geez please this is the sound of 2013. Produced by Flying Lotus, you can hear his touch on many songs, but the star here is Stephen’s Bass and Voice.
Try to put a label to this record, I freaking dare you. Just listen to this song. I keep going back to this album, over and over again; Tron Song, Heartbreaks+Setbacks and Oh, Sheit It’s X. Also, a song dedicated to our beloved Austin Peralta, so many feels. Go get this record!
Honorable mention
Matangi, M.I.A.
m b v, My Bloody Valentine
…Like Clockwork, Queens of the Stone Age
AM, Arctic Monkeys
AMOK, Atoms for Peace
Comedown Machine, The Strokes
