It’s that time again, for our annual alternative to the Mercury Music Prize, to highlight some really special records that we love, and to have a public vote to see which one you love the most.

As per previous years, we’ve used the same eligibility (albums by UK & Ireland acts released in the July-July time period) and haven’t included anyone who’s up for the Mercury Prize.

One vote each. Hopefully you’ll find a record you’ve not heard before that you go on to adore (that’s the real point of this)

  • Actress – ADZ
  • Blanck Mass – World Eater
  • Clark – Deathpeak
  • Forest Swords – Compassion
  • Honeyblood – Babes Never Die
  • IDLES – Brutalist
  • Jane Weaver – Modern Cosmology
  • Kelly Lee Owens – Kelly Lee Owens
  • Laura Marling – Semper Feminina
  • Laurel Halo – Dust
  • Marika Hackman – I’m Not Your Man
  • Meursalt – I Will Kill Again
  • Mura Masa – Mura Masa
  • Ride – 4 Weather Diaries
  • Rose Elinor Dougall – Stellular
  • Sacred Paws – Strike A Match
  • Sleaford Mods – English Tapas
  • Slowdive – Slowdive

provisionally voting Sleaford Mods but still need to check out the Moonlandingz and might try one or two others on the list that i haven’t heard

Balls! I knew I’d make one mistake (that may even have been autocorrect). Annoyingly I can’t edit a poll once it’s had votes…

You’ve also got Ride’s album name wrong

The typos are as much my fault as Seans - typing and research was done while stuck in an airport waiting for a flight and under the influence of a very heavy cold. So, apologies.

It’s an amazing album, and my favourite on this list too, but isn’t she American?
