1: betcover!! - Yuki (勇気)
album.link/s/1XNE6xQzrl...
This blew me away. Such a cinematic work, great blend of Japanese blues with Jazz-Fusion and Progressive Rock. Truly one of the albums and one of the bands of our times!!
#2025Albums
2: Hiromi's Sonicwonder - Out There
album.link/s/5Z1XM55fh2...
Out There is a masterpiece of Jazz Fusion; it proves that Hiromi and her band are the most versatile and expressive Jazz artists of our time, capable to blend well synths with Jazz-y grooves.
#2025Albums
3: PucliPerla - Tatekieto
album.link/s/3s0Ob5hSVg...
Tatekieto is a really nice debut for a collaboration of two bands: Pulcinella and La Perla. While it carries the heat of Latin music, there are also refreshing Jazz arrangements on there. I highly recommend this album!
#2025Albums
4: Maruja - Pain to Power
album.link/s/6wymdowW8H...
This is a monumental debut album which cements Maruja as one of the most interesting bands that came out of the uprising British Indie scene. It's terrifying but hopeful work, proving that art remains one of tools for resistance.
#2025Albums
5: Swans - Birthing
album.link/s/05rmFti1xK...
Birthing is Swans' "Post-Rock era" epilogue. It's an intimidating endurance test which rewards the listener with some of the most beautiful and terrifying soundscapes of Swans has ever produced. A masterpiece of Post-Rock classicism.
#2025Albums
6: Geese - Getting Killed
album.link/s/0eeXb23yMW...
It's a bold and challenging masterpiece which cements Geese as the most unpredictable and vital indie band. This record manages to be both physically demanding and intellectually dense.
#2025Albums
7: Demo Rumudo - Second Nature
album.link/s/3wXuW53q6y...
Second Nature is a masterclass in balance, where Demo Rumudo successfully bridges the gap between old-school Progressive Rock and modern Jazz-Fusion.
#2025Albums
8: McKinley Dixon - Magic, Alive!
album.link/s/0RXsRwX4iM...
This is the most ambitious work by McKinley by far. By treating music as a literal incantation, he has created a project that is both a philosophical thesis and joyous celebration of life.
#2025Albums
9: Turnstile - Never Enough
album.link/s/52yD51X7yD...
You know what, hardcore elitists can eat my ass. It's so much fun to listen to this record. It blends the hardcore music with New Wave (think of Police) and Dream Pop so well, that you don't get tired listening to it.
#2025Albums
10: Racing Mount Pleasant - Racing Mount Pleasant
album.link/s/037axs2AfE...
You can feel a huge inspiration from BC,NR music circa Isaac Wood being their main songwriter. However, RMP here adds their own flavoring to the music and imo one of the indie bands to keep an eye on.
#2025Albums
11: Wednesday - Bleeds
album.link/s/29HKbQ2pgX...
This record is truly an achievement of making a breakup album while avoiding all the cliches by rooting its pain in a specific place. It's very raw, noisy, and empathetic record which cements Wednesday as one of the Indie bands.
#2025Albums
12: Tropical Fuck Storm - Fairyland Codex
album.link/s/2SCljWoTOQ...
This is TFS's most cohesive work since their debut album and it's amazing. It's a nice blend of Art-Punk and Psychedelic Rock. It feels like a "toxic coral reef".
#2025Albums
13: Snõõper - Worldwide
album.link/s/1Lej9DPOh2...
Snooper improves their lo-fi sound while keeping their speedy and freaky energy. This record is more accessible rather than their debut album, it's colorful, frantic, and anxious at the same time. Such an addictive work.
#2025Albums
14: Psychedelic Porn Crumpets - Carpe Diem, Moonman
album.link/s/16GtmNPUFA...
Psychedelic chaos is back and this is probably PPC's most dynamic release since their first two albums. On this record, they lean more into Heavy Psych and even sprinkle some Math-Rock on top of it.
#2025Albums
15: Pile - Sunshine and Balance Beams
album.link/s/0mlgaAp88E...
Pile comes back to their "Post-Hardcore" roots with more cinematic and orchestral textures in place. This is Pile's late-career masterpiece and most overlooked band in this genre imo.
#2025Albums
16: Ethel Cain - Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You
album.link/s/3iSPMfhw4P...
This is a prequel to Ethel's 2022 record "Preacher's Daughter", which, in comparison, is more dense and claustrophobic exploration of teenage first love and a further expansion of Ethel's lore.
#2025Albums
17: Ninajirachi - I Love My Computer
album.link/s/77CZUF57sY...
This debut album by Ninajirachi is essentially a love letter to the digital world, exploring her lifelong "relationship" with technology. Amazing blend of hyperpop, club EDM, and internet culture.
#2025Albums
18: Little Simz - Lotus
album.link/s/0ofdTvYtx4...
Lotus marks an important chapter in Little Simz's career. Simbiatu steps away from her longtime producer and delivers a raw and genre-blending record which balances ecstatic energy with a newfound vulnerability from personal betrayal
#2025Albums
19: Agriculture - The Spiritual Sound
album.link/s/4HxzA7GFGt...
Agriculture fully realized their vision of "ecstatic black metal" and improved their sound. This record is a masterclass in dynamic contrast, shifting between blast beats and moments of fragility and beauty.
