Tegan and Sara - Heartthrob
87

An essential break-up album. Solid all the way through.

School '94 - Bound
82

An unheard of indie group from Sweden. The lead singer's vocals are hauntingly beautiful. Hazy guitars and electronics. Overall the band's sound lightly echoes the Cocteau Twins

Half Waif - form/a
86

A softly glistening EP offering from [Indie band Pinegrove's] Nandi Rose Plunkett. Inner thoughts and feelings concerning her sense of home and relationships portrayed eloquently with electronic sounds and deep vocals.

The Cars - Heartbeat City
81

A solid 80's alternative rock album all the way through.

Virginia Astley - Hope In A Darkened Heart
89

An ethereal, sweet, but at the same time dark album. Virginia Astley is very unheard of in the US, but she is worth giving a listen to.

Kristin Kontrol - X-Communicate
80

All around fun and bouncy synth-pop.

Maria Usbeck - Amparo
83

Beautiful experimental album. This album will take you to another world and is worth a listen.

Flock of Dimes - If You See Me, Say Yes
85

A 2016 album unfortunately overlooked. Jenn Wasner of Wye Oak delivers a solo-effort full of heartfelt songs. Atmospheric, dreamy, with lovely guitar work and tastefully added electronic sound. Stand-out songs: Semaphore, Everything Is Happening Today, Ida Glow, Minor Justice.

王菲 [Faye Wong] - 浮躁 [Fúzào]
92

Phenomenal album. Highly inspired by one of her favorite bands, the Cocteau Twins, Chinese pop artist Faye Wong offers an experimental album that should be heard by all fans of Ethereal music.
