I migliori album internazionali del 2011 – la lista di Zago
I migliori album dell’anno: Tom Waits, James Blake, Bon Iver, Fleet Foxes, Radiohead, Kate Bush, PJ Harvey, The Antlers, The Horrors, Girls
Dicembre tempo di bilanci… come ogni anno. Di seguito trovate una personale classifica dei migliori album internazionali (o meglio… non italiani) usciti nel 2011.
Come lo scorso anno, la classifica si basa sui voti ricevuti all’interno della rubrica “Uscite Discografiche“, per questo motivo viene presa per buona esclusivamente la “prima valutazione” e non tiene conto di eventuali ripensamenti (verso l’alto o verso il basso). Ad esempio vi posso tranquillamente dire che oggi come oggi avrei dato mezzo voto in meno ai Radiohead e mezzo voto in più a SBTRKT o WU LYF. Nella lista sono stati inclusi tutti gli album (201) che hanno ricevuto un voto superiore al 6/7, compreso.
Non solo, trovate già alcuni album in uscita in questi giorni che verranno inseriti all’interno del prossimo post relativo alle uscite discografiche (The Roots, Black Keys, The Dear Hunter, Kate Wax e Rome). A Gennaio si inizia nuovamente e presto capiremo se Lana Del Rey potrà realmente essere il grande personaggio del 2012, presentimento che ho ormai da mesi.
Nei prossimi giorni verrà pubblicata la classifica del 2011 relativa agli album “Made in Italy”.
