It’s almost impossible to keep up with everything that comes out, but you should try — or revisit — these fantastic albums.
King Krule, 6 Feet Beneath the Moon
Archy Marshall, the 19-year-old musician known as King Krule, writes, plays, and sings like a weary, seasoned professional at least twice his age. 6 Feet Beneath the Moon, his debut full-length album, is a staggeringly brilliant and emotionally gutting collection of moody songs that defy easy classification, blurring the lines between rock, jazz, hip-hop, blues, and downbeat electronic music. It's not surprising to find a teenage musician singing about misery and angst, but Marshall's lyrics are just as mature as his voice, grappling with clinical depression with great nuance and sensitivity. –Matthew Perpetua
