Musik des Jahres

I don't think it would make much sense for me to compile this list and not mention that my favourite band of all times has released a re-issued collector's box set of all their albums, which included a new single and was paired with the announcement that a new album would follow in early 2015. I missed out on ever seeing Sleater-Kinney live, and I missed out on truly appreciating their music in my youth, when I would have needed them the most - but in a year of incredibly amazing things and loveliness, it seems serendipitous that this should also have happened. 

Kate Tempest - Everybody Down.
Grouper - Ruins.
Caribou - Our Love.
FKA twigs - LP1.
SOHN - Tremors.
Mirah - Changing Light.
Sharon Van Etten - Are We There.
The Acid - Liminal.
Aphex Twin - Syro.
Son Lux - Alternate Worlds EP.
Warpaint - Warpaint.
White Lung - Deep Fantasy.
