Gesaffelstein: Aleph
Yes, he may have produced Kanye West’s ‘Black Skinhead’ and ‘Send It Up’, but on his own – as the purported dark prince of techno – his debut is an intense introduction to his own take on varied genres of electronic music.
Death Grips: Government Plates
Death Grips’ seemingly unrelenting quest to provoke might just make them the most important music act in the independent scene.
Danny Brown: Old
Danny never glorifies being poor and doing crime — this man isn’t selling the Great American Gangster Story perpetuated by the likes of Jay-Z and most NYC rappers.
Chvrches: The Bones of What You Believe
JUICE was glad that our expectations were tampered before coming into the band’s debut The Bones of What You Believe – because it’s every bit as good as we originally believed.
Haim: Days Are Gone
Days Are Gone is a product by a band that grew up beholden to old school rock, ‘90s pop r’n’b, and girl power bands.
AlunaGeorge: Body Music
More indebted to glitch, UK 2-step, and the bedroom producer scene, Body Music follows the cue of their numerous singles released previously, doubles their amount – you’ve probably heard nearly half of this record before – and then puts sheer focus on what they want to accomplish.
King Krule: 6 Feet Beneath the Moon
On his debut LP, King Krule is occasionally transcendental in his romanticisation of the disillusioned and inebriated living in the sprawling urban mess that is London.
Janelle Monáe: The Electric Lady
On the followup to The ArchAndroid, Cindi Mayweather the android is finally human.
