The Music World : 2014

This year has been incredible for new music, emerging new artists and unbelievable debut albums.

The year saw George Ezra's incredible debut album 'Wanted On Voyage', along with Royal Blood's sensational self titled debut and Sam Smiths number one debut 'In the Lonely Hour'. Ed Sheeran's second album 'X'(multiply) which became number one 12 countries.

Also Mallory Knox's incredible second album 'Asymmetry', Lower Than Atlantis' critically acclaimed self titled fourth album and Twin Atlantic's second album 'The Great Divide', following on from their debut album 'Free'.

In addition to Blitz Kids debut album 'The Good Youth', Clean Bandits incredible debut album 'New Eyes', Canterbury's third album 'Dark Days' and
Paolo Nutini's third incredible album 'Caustic Love', following on from 'These Streets' (2006) and 'Sunny Side Up' (2009).

Lonely the Brave took their first huge step into the world with their debut album 'The Days War'.

Real Friends, from Illinois USA, released debut album 'Maybe This Place Is The Same And We're Just Changing', along with my personal favourite of the year the highly anticipated debut album from Catfish and the Bottlemen 'The Balcony'.

In November Sleeping With Sirens released their new single 'Kick Me', their first release after signing with Epitaph records.




Earlier this month Bring Me the Horizon released their new single 'Drown' which showcases the bands new style since lead singer Sykes announced, at the Alternative Press Music Awards, he won't scream anymore. (I adore this song.)
