Wish I had known about this so I could have voted. BYFFNW was my favorite album from last year.
The Angel laceration is far too much. But not sure if I expected anymore from ATRL. But none of her fans have computers so... How SIO (I'm looking at that god-awful bridge) made it past almost the entirety of Angel's album is just a travesty.
I will say that Angel's music definitely appeals to a certain mindset. And if you don't listen to the lyrics, you're seriously missing out. Glad to see White Water got some recognition, as well as Hi-Five, F/F, Windows and Stars, but all deserved Top 25 at least!
White Fire and Dance Slow Decades *weeps*, the lyrics on both those tracks are just...
not quite sure how twigs was not taken out as badly as Angel. Aside from being in different genres, both albums are rather difficult listens that grow (immensely) over time…
