10. NF - "Clouds EP"

NF returns to 2021 with his unique style of lyricism, a blend of rap and vocal talent that rivals his peers and in my opinion, surpasses them. His cult following, including me, have devoured his songs like we've been starving for his honesty and his Real Music. 
Fave Songs: Clouds. That's a Joke, Prideful, Lost (Feat. HOPSIN) Layers, Trust ft Tech N9ne & Paid My Dues.

9. FJØRA  "Onyx"
 
One of my fave new finds of this year has been 
FJØRA. Onyx is an album that is dark in tone, yet its definitely cinematic pop, and I love it. I can totally see most of the songs being featured in TV shows.
Fave Songs: Come With Me, 
Get Down, ​Outta my Way,  Smile,  Revenge is a bitch & so am I, Cage, Limitless (Ft. INTOTHEWILD) and​ This is the End ​

8. Limp Bizkit "Still Sucks"
 

Limp Bizkit jubilant return proves that the band Still Sucks - In the f**king best possible way.
Fave Songs: 
​Out of Style,  Dirty Rotten Bizkit, Dad Vibes, Turn It Up, Bitch, Don't Change, You Bring Out the Worst in Me, Pill Popper, and Goodbye   ​

7. Måneskin "Teatro d'ira - Vol. I"
 
Listen, I may not understand most of the songs on this EP, but I was suckered into this catchy rock EP. It's not everyday that you will find me listening to a song from Eurovision, but hell, if you haven't listened to Måneskin yet, then correct that mistake right now.  
​Best Songs: ​Every. Single. One.

6. Foo Fighters “Medicine at Midnight”
 

Foo Fighters return with a triumphant album to give 2021 just what it needs in the form of a toe tapping, mood lifting, 36 mins of awesome. 
Fave Songs: Shame Shame, Cloudspotter. Medicine at Midnight, No Son of Mine and Holding Poison but every song on the album is worth a listen.

5. You Me At Six - "Suckapunch”
 
Suckapunch is an album filled with exceptional vocals, heavy riffs and even a song that I would love to do a remix of for the dancefloor! 
Fave songs: Glasgow (Fave!) Voicenotes, Suckapunch, Kill the Mood, Finish What I Started and Beautiful Way.

4. Nothing but Thieves - "Moral Panic II & Moral Panic (The Complete Edition)l"
 
Moral Panic was one of my fave albums last year and 
Fave songs: Every single song …just listen to the complete edition and you won't be sorry!

3. Yonaka - "Seize the Power"
 

Seize the Power is a perfect blend of motivational anthems with Ordinary, Raise Your Glass and Raise your Glass, to massive FU tracks, like Get Out, Clique, Greedy and Call me a Saint, that will be epic live and the last track, Anthem, surprises the hell out of you in the best possible way.
Fave Songs: 
The Entire Fucking EP.

2. Architects- "For Those That Wish to Exist"
 
To be honest, if I could cheat and have both Architects and Hayley at number one, I would. For Those That Wish To Exist is a 
complex, emotionally charged album that tells a story with each song, each lyric that resonates with those of us who find solace in music during the crazy times we live in.
Fave Songs: Do You Dream of Armageddon?, Black Lungs, Dead Butterflies, An Ordinary Extinction, Animals, Goliath and Dying is Absolutely Safe.

1. Hayley Williams - "Flowers for Vases/ Descansos"
 
This has got to be one of my fave albums ever. I listened to it so much that when I did a Spotify quiz thing, they asked me if I was feeling okay! Flowers for Vases/descansos is a haunting, beautifully tragic album, filled with heart-breaking lyrics and enchanting melodies that have that instant calm feeling.
Fave Songs:  My Limb, Asystole, Trigger, Good Grief, Inordinary, ​​HYD, ​No Use I Just Do and Just a Lover.
Looking forward to in 2022-Keeping my fingers crossed.
 
Bring me the Horizon
When Post Human: Survival Horror was released in 2020, BMTH promised us more music sooner rather than later as they moved to release EP style albums instead of full ones. with the release of Die4U in September, it marks the promise of a new EP and if 
Post Human: Survival Horror was anything to go by, I can't wait.

Paramore
Hayley Williams has been busy with two amazing albums in a year and had promised that Paramore will release new music in the near future. It's been four years since we got the epic album After Laughter and I think we are all ready for another Paramore album.

Måneskin
My guilty pleasure of 2021, Måneskin is a band I'm excited to see more of, after they released Mammamia, I expect they will capitalize on their popularity and either release a second EP, or an album.

 
Yonaka.
I feel like Yonaka's EP release of Seize the Power just made fans hungry for more, hoping the 2022 brings with it either more of what Seize the Power had to offer in the form of another EP or a full length album.
 
Pvris
Use Me was one of my fave albums of 2020, and now that Lynn has released two singles, three if you include the song featured on League of Legends, I'm seriously excited to see if a new album is on the cards for 2022!
