I’m not really happy with this list.
I don’t feel that a list of 2014 releases would qualify reflecting what I liked this year. The most accurate list would be a mashup of the first 3 or 4 releases of my 2014 lists mixed with my “Albums listened to most” list. There are records from my past, some from more than 8 years ago, I recently dug up again. And quite a few records from last year I just started appreciating this year. Probably being abroad for longer caused me to hold on to something familiar. I can’t tell.
Hence, I am certain I will pick up and appreciate a lot of these year’s records during the course of 2015 (e.g. Wolves In The Throne Room, Downfall Of Gaia, Xerxes,…), albums I didn’t feel like listening to. Yet I’m thankful for being able to experience the music scene here in Singapore (Yumi, Sjanse, SiFulan, Wormrot, Daily Ritual) broadening my horizons.

There is something in the making, stay tuned.
