I like that they’re going out on their own terms - how many artists get to do that?

I'm a bit heartbroken that Saint Etienne is saying farewell, so it's great to see them go out with a magnificent final LP

20 years on and judging by the video it hardly looks like they’ve aged a day

Love this for #1 - would also be a top 10 music video pick

Death Cab for Cutie
1. Gold Rush
A rare non-relationship song, instead it is the perfect encapsulation of urban crowding captured in both lyrics and video

There’s been some fantastic albums by legacy artists these past few years, but none hit harder than Memento MorI, released a year after Fletch’s passing
