71. Bob Mould - Beauty & Ruin
Beauty And Ruin falls short as a masterpiece ... but it quietly lets the handbrake off on Mould’s creativity.
67. Perfume Genius - Too Bright
September 23, 2014
Critic Score

36 reviews
56. Angel Olsen - Burn Your Fire for No Witness
Burn Your Fire for No Witness feels like a big step forward from its predecessor, Half Way Home.
55. Sunn O))) & Scott Walker - Soused
October 21, 2014
Critic Score
81
39 reviews
The result is the most accessible Scott Walker album since Tilt, perhaps even longer.
53. Goat - Commune
52. Liars - Mess

Critic Score

32 reviews
51. Jenny Lewis - The Voyager
Lewis conducts what navel-gazing there is on The Voyager with her characteristic mordant wit, and she has shed none of her way with an irresistible, deadpan pop melody.
50. Wild Beasts - Present Tense
For the fourth album in a row, they've moved the goalposts, challenging themselves to apply their whooping idiosyncrasies to a new aesthetic framework.
38. Fennesz - Bécs
An entirely ravishing aesthetic experience.
31. Tune-Yards - Nikki Nack
May 6, 2014
Critic Score

40 reviews
30. Spoon - They Want My Soul
August 5, 2014
Critic Score
78
42 reviews
Everything shines out brighter and louder than ever before as they return from a three-year break.
29. Jack White - Lazaretto
Third Man maverick shows little sign of mellowing on wild and witty second solo album.
28. The Black Keys - Turn Blue
May 13, 2014
Critic Score
74
36 reviews
If El Camino was the Keys’ catchiest album, Turn Blue turns out to be their sneakiest, subtlest and most seductive. It might be the first Black Keys record for lovers, in fact.
26. Steve Gunn - Way Out Weather
He sings plenty, with engaging huskiness, while leading his band down ever more inventive tangents.
