20 brilliant albums of 2013: albums we already love from this year
The Neighbourhood, Peace, C2C and more
- The Neighbourhood - I Love You: A new arrival to the Gigwise stereo, The Neighbourhood's debut album is an instantly spectacular record, packed full of dark, macabre beats and spectacular pop hooks. Single-handedly ushering in a new sound of indie-noir, the LA band have worked with the producers of Lana Del Rey's Born To Die album, and it shows. A male-orientated slant on cinematic, Americana pop-rock. Glorious.

In a time where it seems people are no longer afraid to dip into different genres and open their minds to different varieties of alternative music, the list consists of indie, electro, hip-hop, folk and even a bit of pop depending on where you would place Bastille's No.1 album Bad Blood.
