More sonically expansive than Jarvis Cocker's trademark geek-pop, but the surreal voyeurisms of his debut JARV IS outing are as sharp as ever (even if he tries to rhyme "claustrophobia" with "disrobin' ya").

Fiona Apple's first studio album in eight years was as much of an event as any release this year. An unyielding masterpiece that redefines music, according to Pitchfork's perfect 10 review. Jittery alt-folk and conversational choruses, dog sounds and all.

Hauntingly minimal piano and harmonium-led compositions described as blocks of metal falling from the sky, that sit behind her rich Yorkshire vocal. It makes sense when you listen.

A real comeback album from a prophet whose recent output has been more concerned with Frank Sinatra covers than sharing wisdom on the human consciousness. The 17-minute closing track is one of the best he's ever written.
For fans of: Bob Dylan, do you need more than that?

2020's been a funny year. We didn't think we'd be playing a Spice Girl's solo album this much, but Mel C's eponymous LP is a manifesto for self-care - critically-acclaimed, tropical-tinged pop to the tune of Róisín Murphy and Robyn.
For fans of: Robyn, Dua Lipa, Spice Girls
Original release: 2 October 2020 Format: Clear Vinyl 3LP Casebound Book + Signed Card - exclusive edition of 100
