Gli album consigliati del 2013

Eh sì, lo sappiamo: è ancora presto per dare vita a un consuntivo dei migliori album del 2013. Sicuramente non basterà neanche la fine dell’anno per realizzarlo, vista la quantità abnorme di uscite discografiche annuali. Ciononostante, non abbiamo saputo resistere all’idea di buttare giù una lista dei dischi del 2013 che, fino a questo momento, ci hanno entusiasmato. Una lista che, in qualche modo, possa orientare il lettore, o forse meglio l’ascoltatore, nel panorama musicale alternativo e indipendente oramai sempre più complesso e trafficato. Insomma: un elenco di “dischi consigliati” che, da qui alla fine dell’anno, cercheremo di ampliare grazie anche alle vostre segnalazioni su Facebook e che, naturalmente, ci condurrà ad eleggere “I migliori dischi del 2013”. Per contribuire ad ampliare la lista è sufficiente commentare questo articolo inserendo i lavori discografici, con release 2013, che vi sono piaciuti. Per ora iniziamo noi… (Redazione Musicletter.it)
