My No.1 would be Drab Majesty’s The Demonstration, an 80s influenced gothy darkwave album, Chameleons-esque in places. The only one which may come near it is Prurients’ Rainbow Mirror, a 4CD release of industrial noise / ambient which was released at the end of the year and which i haven’t completely got my head round yet.
