"Inhaler" me arrepiento de ponerla muy bajo el año pasado.
"Holdin' On" suena increíble, buenísima!
Hay algunos momentos del Settle que no me gustan mucho como "When a Fire Starts to Burn", pero es buen tema de todas formas.
"Bad Kingdom" y "Young & Beautiful" también las tuve en mi top.
Aunque mi favorita es esa obra maestra de "Overgrown".
Nine Inch Nails 'Hesitation Marks' Genre:
Electro-Industrial, Industrial Rock
EBM, Alternative Rock, Alternative Dance, Synth Pop Highlights: "Copy of A", "Running", "I Would for You" Label: Columbia Records You'll Like It If You Like: Their most dance-y stuff, The Knife's 'Silent Shout' (7.9)
More minimalistic comparing it to Trent's previous works, and, well, you can't expect the guy to stay angry forever, now he has a wife and a children. Of course that the guy wasn't going to make a masterpiece like 'The Downward Spiral' or 'The Fragile'. But this album has many enjoyable moments, tho.

Deafheaven 'Sunbather' Genre:
Blackgaze
Post-Rock, Experimental Rock, Atmospheric Black Metal Highlights: "Please Remember", "The Pecan Tree", "Vertigo" Label: Deathwish, Inc. You'll Like It If You Like: Swans, Godspeed You! Black Emperor (7.9)
Deafheaven's second album, 'Sunbather', is most definitely their most critically acclaimed album yet, hell, it is probably the most critically acclaimed album of the year. ('Yeezus', could beg to differ, but still). Not easy to get, though, you most definitely won't get this album at first listen. But, once you get it, you fell in love with it. This is one ****ing artsy album.

Forest Swords 'Engravings Genre:
Neo-Psychedelia, Electronic
Downtempo, Post-Rock, Ambient Dub, Trip Hop Highlights: "Friend, You Will Never Learn", "The Weight of Gold", "Ljoss", "Anneka's Battle (feat. Anneka)" Label: Tri Angle You'll Like It If You Like: Massive Attack meets Tame Impala meets Asian music, Tim Hecker (8.0)
Just... haunting. Matthew Barnes just knows how to do this. I don't think this album isn't always all that great, it has some dissapointing moments, but... man, just listen "Friend, You Will Never Learn". ****, that song is sex made music.

Triangulo de Amor Bizarro 'Victoría Mística' Genre:
Noise Pop, Indie Rock
Noise Rock, Shoegaze, Dream Pop, Post-Punk Highlights: "Enemigos del Espíritu", "Ellas Se Burlaron de Mi Magia", "Estrellas Místicas" Label: Mushroom Pillow You'll Like It If You Like: My Bloody Valentine, The Jesus and Mary Chain (8.1)
In mid-2013, the spanish band Triángulo de Amor Bizarro (Bizarre Love Triangle - you can guess why they chose that name) released their Shoegaze-y third album, easily influenced by bands like My Bloody Valentine and The Jesus and Mary Chain. I don't usually use music in spanish. But, God, this is amazing.

Death Grips 'Government Plates' Genre:
Glitch Hop, Industrial Hip Hop, Abstract Hip Hop
Electro-Industrial, Wonky, Hardcore Hip Hop, Synth Punk Highlights: "Two Heavens", "Whatever I Want (F**k Who's Watching)", "Birds", "Big House" Label: Harvest Records You'll Like It If You Like: Crystal Castles gone hip hop, 'Yeezus', El-P, "Yung Rapunxel" (8.1)
I have a really deep love/hate relationship with Death Grips. When they don't put erected dicks as their album covers, they screw their labels up album by leaking their albums for free. But they kind of became Memetic Gods, thanks to that. And they have some good songs, too. This album is like three times better than NO LOVE DICK WEB... erm, I meant NO LOVE DEEP WEB (this is not saying much, tho.), and it's way more electronic compared to their previous efforts, and it features some of their most accessible moments... but some of their most inaccessible too. But, yeah, it is actually good.
By the way, they released this album for free, with an accompanying video for every song. Just saying.

Icona Pop 'This Is...' Genre:
Dance-Pop, Electropop
Synth Pop, Electro House, New Wave Highlights: "I Love It (feat. Charli XCX)", "Ready for the Weekend", "Just Another Night", "Nights Like This (deluxe version)" Label: Harvest Records You'll Like It If You Like: Calvin Harris, MNDR, Robyn, Charli XCX (8.1)
If you're listening to this based on the quality of the music, then you're listening to this in the wrong way. This is not something to be just "listened" to. This is music to dance to. This is pop. Really perfect pop. Let Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, even Rihanna learn from this girls, because, I mean, there IS a reason of why these two swedish girls are so critically acclaimed, and (to a certain extent ) successful. They found the formula for perfect pop. You know, it gets tiring if you do this for 11 tracks, but still, you're going to have an amazing time listening to this. And "Ready for the Weekend"... is just epic.
OMFG! Engravings y Sunbather. Amo eso dos álbumes.
Government Plates también me gusta.
Que bueno ver a Triángulo de Amor Bizarro, he escuchado algunos temas de ellos, pero nunca un LP completo, ya es hora creo.
La de NIN nunca la llegué a escuchar aunque los adelantos me gustaron, igual con Icona Pop.

They released their album 'This Is...' in September, and despite not getting many success, it had critical acclaim.

Tomorrow I will post the top 3 of Best New Artists. I know it is kinda obvious what's going to be the top 3... but... any guesses?
Death Grips el drag al final del write up

No es un drag. El album al que me refería >>>>>>>>>>>> la carrera de esos.

This Is... Icona Pop y me gusta RFTW, pero el RFTW de Calvin siempre será más épico
y otra vez Icona Pop en los nuevos artistas! "Nights Like This", era mi cancion favorita antes de "I Love It", me acuerdo que hasta fue parte de mi best of 2011 y nadie nadie le dio un aplauso eran tan underrated.
