Top 5 Albums at the Moment!

Hello lovelies!
To kick off the first of my 'Top 5' Blogs, I thought I'd do something a bit different! My blog is about me as a person and my two biggest loves are music and make up. I do a lot of make up blog posts and thought, hey, let's do a music blog post! So, here are 5 albums that I am absolutely loving at the moment. 

Modern Vampires of the City - Vampire Weekend
A less well known choice but a gorgeous album. This is Vampire Weekends 3rd album and it is absolutely wonderful. Each track is different and Ezra Koenig, the lead singer, wrote and composed all the songs and they're all so good! I love Diane Young, which was the first single that released off the album, it's just so upbeat and happy! I have loved Vampire Weekend for a long time and this third album is the best yet in my opinion. I have this thing about owning albums I love as like the hard copy, and the album artwork and packaging on this album is so pretty, and that makes me love it even more! Definitely worth a listen, and a few songs are on my summer playlist already!

Crystal Fighters - Star of Love
I love this band and this album so much. I heard 'With You' on an episode of Skins a while ago and instantly loved it. I think the first album is better than the second, and my personal favourite is 'Plage'. A lot of the songs are just summery, upbeat, dancing songs. Seeing them live in December made my adoration grow, and now I am constantly listening to them. Their songs are going to be on my summer playlist, but I do listen to them in the winter months to stop the gloomy weather spreading gloom everywhere! Also at the concert they spread positive vibes and inspirational words, which I love as positivity is the key to happiness and success in my opinion.

Eliza Doolittle - In Your Hands
This album is probably my favourite out of the five. It is full of amazing tracks. Big When I Was Little was on for the majority of my summer, and I listened to let it rain about 400 times on a really long car journey and still didn't get tired of it. My personal favourite is "Walking on Water", it's just a really chilled song and is just wonderfully written, just like all the songs on this album. I think the meaning behind 'Walking on Water" is just adorable and thats why I like it so much. Eliza Doolittle's voice is absolutely insane and so unique and I adore her. 

Disclosure - Settle
This album is certainly one of the best to come out of 2013. It has a 90's garage/dance feel and I love it. Each song is different and some of the collaborations are amazing. "You & Me" and "Running" are my personal favourites, but all the tracks are amazing. The whole album just reminds me of summer and makes me so excited for summer 2014. All the songs just make you so happy and want to move! As you can tell I'm a massive fan of upbeat dancy songs and this album is full of them!

Haim - Days are Gone
This album is less dancy (I'm not even sure if dancy is a word), and more rocky (again is that even a word). 'Don't Save Me' reminds me of our ski trip to Austria which was one of the best memories of 2013! I love Haim, they're so unique and all so gorgeous. Este is my favourite Haim sister though guys! Definitely think everyone should have a wee listen to this album as it's just absolutely amazing!
