28 albums from 2013 that should have been much, much bigger
Brilliant records that deserved more attention
- Drenge - Drenge: Thanks to one mouthy Labour MP, all of the buzz around this album was centred around Mr Tom Watson - when we should have been paying attention to the fine calibre of brutally filthy grunge blues on display. It should also have been nominated for a Mercury too. Oh well, maybe next time we'll all listen and pay proper attention.
Daft Punk. David Bowie. Arctic Monkeys. Queens Of The Stone Age. Those are most likely the biggest albums of the year. All household names and all have sold tens of thousands of copies in 2013. But what about the best albums of the year that didn't do so well?
We've listened to a lot of albums this year (and so have you, we're sure), and here we pay tribute to the artists who haven't quite achieved the success, fame and international adoration they deserved after releasing their 2013 record. From grunge rock to Australian pop, US rap to downbeat electronica - these are the overlooked albums of 2013 (so far) that should have been much, much bigger...
