Albums Of The Year (Industry Folk): Haverford

Next up in our industry folk lists is written by Anthony Stano on behalf of The Alternative Tone favourites Haverford


1. I Can See Mountains Life On A Houseboat 

This band is criminally underrated, and they put out he absolute best album of 2013. It makes me want to go outside and spend some time with my best friends, fall in love, and follow my dreams. This is everything you could ask for from an album and is unbelievably inspiring. Please go take a road trip and listen to this album.


2. Into it. Over it. Intersections



Instrumentally my favorite body of music; the guitars and drum work so well together.

3. A Great Big Pile Of LeavesYou’re Always On My Mind



 Some of my favorite bass lines, one of the grooviest albums of 2013

4. Justin TimberlakeThe 20/20 Experience 



The most insane harmonies ever recorded. Definitely not what I expected to hear from this album.

5. Earl SweatshirtDoris 



Some of the darkest, coolest, most unique beats out there with great lyrics delivered perfectly.

6. Polar Bear ClubDeath Chorus



The singer changed his vocal style for this record and delivered their best melodies over some really powerful music.

7. Laura StevensonWheel 



This album really tugs at your heartstrings; beautiful, quiet moments and soaring peaks. And that voice: dammmmmn.

8. Iron ChicThe Constant One


Jam City.


9. State Lines – For The Boats



Jam City pt. 2.


10. Daughter If You Leave



 I discovered this album a day before this list was made and it absolutely blew me away.
