Rollasoc's Top Ten Albums of the Year.

Time for my annual list of the top ten albums of the year.  

Rule is, I must have physically purchased the album and not just streamed it, so although I have enjoyed (and at some point will buy the cd and or vinyl or cassette) the likes of Bjork, King Creature, Alison Moyet, Slowdive, Daniel Cavanagh etc etc, they are all ineligable.

The other problem, is most of my music purchases have been back catalog stuff, For example, I have bought a few older The Pineapple thief albums and most of the Lunatic soul ones.

So anyway here is the top ten.

10 - Dave Krezner - Static

9 - Pete Murphy - Go Dark
  Humm not sure there is a video for this, but you can listen on the bandcamp site via the link.

8 - The Pineapple Thief - Where we stood.

Should be higher really, but it is a live album.

7 - Julianna Hatfield - Pussycat


6 - Goldfrapp - Silver Eye

                                      

5- Gaz Brookfield - Solo Acoustic Guy
                                      


4 - Lights and Motion - Dear Avalance








3 - Steven Wilson - To The Bone

                                    


2 - Paul Draper - Spooky Action

1 - Lunatic Soul - Fractured

So there you go, my top ten new albums of 2017.

In a break with tradition, this EP contains four instrumentals.

1. Lies

We did make a video for the track lies, using the game Kerbal Space Program.
