Sky Ferreira
Night Time, My Time
CAPITOL
15
Let's get one thing straight from the start: that image over there on the left is not supposed to turn you on, it's supposed to make you feel gross. Sky Ferreira's Night Time, My Time is emboldened by the power to make you feel icky, constantly balling up our cultural obsessions with voyeurism and confession and live-tweeted female breakdowns only to hock them back in our faces like poison spitballs. "It ain't your right," she sneers early on overtop a tarnished, motorik beat, and you almost get the feeling that she's talking about our right to be listening in on such intimate declarations at all. A minute later, through a clenched jaw: "I'll only warn you one time/ I've got a stilted view." It's not just empty provocation. This record is not polite, this record does not wait for permission; reality show casting directors take note because this record did not come here to make friends.
Night Time, My Time is blown-speaker, smeared-lipstick pop—would-be radio hits with that last topcoat of paint left incomplete. It's a little bit retro—"Omanko" is jet-lagged Suicide; "I Will" is Blondie with overgrown roots; "24 Hours" is a song I am bummed John Hughes did not get to hear before he died—but its overall sensibility is undeniably 2013. The unfinished-basement textures are the work of Producer of the Moment/Most Valuable Ex-Hippos Member Ariel Reichstadt, and if it had a kindred spirit in the many things he had a hand in this year it was Charli XCX's True Romance—another record that seethed and blushed and oh-my-God-ed and just felt at all times unapologetically alive. But Night Time, My Time gave us the added bonus of long-delayed gratification: a brave and uncompromising artist who'd languished so long in the dentist office waiting room of the music industry finally hears her name called—and finally gets a chance to bare her fangs. "The way I was before, I'm not her anymore," Ferreira surges on "Heavy Metal Heart", flinging off each syllable with wild abandon, like she's shaking off the last scales of old skin. —Lindsay Zoladz

I saw the Burial EP that came out last week somewhere in the 20s and thought they might put Beyoncé up there too.
But I like this list a lot.

Yes!! Came to say this. What a stupid bitch seriously. I knew I wasn't wrong when I said I felt they'd give her a decent score, but that ugly bitch Lindsay had to review it

“I am gonna comfort you with all that I have,” Lauren Mayberry sings on “Gun”, from Chvrches’ full-length debut. It’s not a promise—more like a command. You will be comforted. Such a forceful sentiment might sound overbearing if The Bones of What You Believe wasn’t so insistently and so genuinely compassionate, if the synths didn’t sound so massively sparkly on “Tether”, if the choruses of “The Mother We Share” didn’t scale monumental heights. Before forming Chvrches, these three Glaswegians all had a jump on becoming jaded insiders: Iain Cook and Martin Doherty paid dues in Aerogramme and the Twilight Sad, respectively, and Mayberry, in addition to serving time in a twee-folk act, had studied music journalism. Yet, there was something refreshing and deeply moving about Chvrches in 2013. They wore their hearts on their sleeves and risked falling on their faces, but Bones succeeds precisely because it sounds so musically and spiritually generous. These songs are far too ambitious to be mere comfort food, and the trio are too concerned about each and every one of you to care much about any particular trends or scenes. —Stephen M. Deusner

Wait, what? That's big the line at all though, is it?  Isn't it "I am gonna come for you"? Did he even listen to the rest of the lyrics?
