I didn’t listen to a lot of new music this year but I did enjoy some very good songs that I compiled for you in a handy-dandy playlist available in two major music steaming services. Have at it and buy their records! Godspeed to the legendary Glen Campbell, the mighty Tommy Keene and my dude Grant Hart.
I’m going to keep this short and simple, Lush combined everything I loved about early 90s shoegaze and dream pop. The London-based four-piece—Miki Berenyi (vocals, guitar), Emma Anderson (vocals, guitar), Phil King (bass) and Chris Acland (drums)—were stylish, effortlessly cool, and most importantly they delivered a deft sonic and melodic punch.
