Top 50 Albums of 2014

TOP 50 ALB 14These lists are everywhere, so you’ll be excused if you just roll your eyes and skip on.

Foxes in Fiction Return with Great Tune

foxesThis track hit right before the holiday weekend, so I hadn’t had a chance to put it up yet, despite knowing that it’s one of the best songs I’ve heard this summer.  The song has this lush production, taking warbling tape and orchestration and building it into this effortless swell of pop.  It’s no surprise, however, as Foxes in Fiction have been making such breathtaking music for some time.  This is one of the seven tracks that’ll be featured on the group’s new album, Ontario Gothic, which is being released on the increasingly reliable Orchid Tapes in September.
