Alt-j stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live to deliver a lively performance of the rock-inclined track, “Hard Drive Go.”

What a year in rock music! There, I said it. Too much to take in. Like a rowboat taking in more water than I can bail out. I keep getting new music recommended to me by friends, publicists, old lovers, dudes on subways, songs blasting in hipster boutiques; freakin' new music was everywhere. I got tipped to U.K. acts such as punk rockers Sleaford Mods, poetry rapper Kate Tempest, and folkster Jake Bugg; there was a new pop rock opus by Dan Wilson, and soulful Brooklynite Selena Garcia, and much more. I could barely compile my "best of/favorites of 2014" list knowing that I'll probably discover even more music after I've completed it. But here goes...my ten favorite tracks from 2014, a few essential reissues, and my ten favorite albums, yes, albums, like on real heavy duty vinyl, with two sides and everything.
Singles:
"Brother" - Selena Garcia...

Nashville, Tenn. — Twelve months ago the guys in British rock back Alt-j had a very simple goal: To release an album.
Just something you could hold in your hands, maybe listen to every so often.
"And at least feel that when we died we could legitimately say we released an album on a label," keyboards player Gus Unger-Hamilton said. "And we could look at it and say, `Look, we made an album once.'"
"Kind of like you can show it to your kids," guitarist-bassist Gwil Sainsbury said.
That debut, "An Awesome Wave," went on to win the prestigious Mercury Prize given to the top album of the year in the United Kingdome and Ireland in something of a shocker. The Cambridge quartet has since been a near constant conversation piece on the blogosphere and mid-sized club circuit on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
The band's in the midst of a U.
