here's 3 great albums from last year

Janelle Monae - Electric lady
(seriously good sci-fi soul, like Stevie wonder and James Brown reincarnated as a lesbian robot - much better than I've made it sound)

Serafina Steer - the moths are real
(folky harpist produced by Jarvis Cocker, with disco influences and some wry, funny lyrics)

Throwing muses - purgatory/paradise
(32 track literate punk-pop, released as a book!)

I'll dig out some YouTube links later as my descriptions have made em all sound pap.
