I’ve resisted including the Taylor’s Version albums in my end of year list but I love them all. Red and 1989 were my faves when originally released and the rerecorded ones are so good too.
They didn’t make an album this year but there was this single to enjoy.
15 minute single!
The BBC Introducing bio said something like “this dreamy band combine Slowdive shoegaze with Cocteau Twins otherworldliness” and I obviously needed to check them out. They were fabulous!
My favourite album of 2022 got deluxified in 2023 and of course all the new tracks were marvellous.
