2014 YEAR IN REVIEW

2014 Year In Review
This was 2014 in music: Punk rock about gender identity. Americana folk from Sweden. The biggest pop smash of the year, from a former country ingenue. In wrapping up the year’s mainstream and indie releases, I don’t want to inadvertently slight the best Norwegian black metal or Andean pan flute albums of the year. So instead, here are Austin360’s 50 Albums Worth Listening To, for one reason or another. (I did listen to loads of non-pan-flute tunes this year.)
 The War On Drugs – “Lost In the Dream
Jenny Lewis – “The Voyager””
St. Vincent – “St. Vincent”
Run the Jewels – “Run the Jewels 2”
Sun Kil Moon – “Benji”
Future Islands – “Singles”
FKA twigs – “LP1”
The New Pornographers – “Brill Bruisers”
Sharon Van Etten – “Are We There”
Angel Olsen – “Burn Your Fire For No Witness”
First Aid Kit – “Stay Gold”
