Mycket överskuggas såklart av attackerna i Paris, men i framtiden minns vi förhoppningsvis 2015 som året musiken hjälpte oss ta ett viktigt kliv mot att övervinna oroligheterna i världen. Kanske var det också de stora återkomsternas år. The Libertines, Adele, Tame Impala, Sleater-Kinney, Blur och Grimes återvände samtliga med nya album som inte gjorde oss besvikna. Courtney Barnett och Father John Misty fick sina verkliga genombrott medan debutanter som Shamir och Tobias Jesso Jr. levde upp till hajpen. Fast årets bästa låt kommer från ett funk-psykedeliskt band från Portland via Nya Zeeland. Kulturbloggens skribenter har sagt sitt.
