42. Efterklang
“Things We Have in Common”
Maybe the thrill of the new has subsided, but Efterklang’s sheer talent and rock-solid foundation — the deep and lasting friendship of the core members — allows them to operate with a level of mastery and cohesion that is awe-inspiring.

43. Helado Negro - “PHASOR”
Helado Negro’s remarkable eighth album exudes a comforting warmth despite — or perhaps because of — its experimental nature. At its best, PHASOR’s hypnagogic compositions almost have an analgesic effect. This is truly ambient-pop bliss.

44. Quivers - “Oyster Cuts”
Melbourne’s Quivers made the leap to the big (well, bigger) leagues with Oyster Cuts, their first record for venerable indie label Merge. Fans of labelmates The New Pornographers will find plenty to love here.

45. The BV’s - “Taking Pictures of Taking Pictures”
Augsburg, Germany’s The BV’s fuse classic twee with 80s indie, adding a dash of shoegaze for good measure. The Field Mice are an obvious touchstone.

46. Real Estate - “Daniel”
The sixth album from Real Estate is another set of accomplished jangle-pop tunes. Innovation isn’t the order of the day here, but when a band does one thing this well it’s hard to grumble too much.

47. Brittany Howard - “What Now”
The former Alabama Shakes singer brightened February with this sharply produced collection of psychedelic electro-funk numbers.
