Paste starter årets runde med den faste tradisjonen om å kåre årets beste plater, sanger, musikkvideoer etc. De har valgt ut ikke mindre enn femti plater og setter (SPOILER:) She & Him på førsteplass. Vi elsker den plata og har omtalt den, men ja - vi er en smule overrasket over at de er plassert på toppen.

Uansett; på listen finner du også mange andre kjente navn som Fleet Foxes, Okkervil River, The Hold Steady, R.E.M., Laura Marling, Lykke Li, I’m From Barcelona, Sigur Rós, Vampire Weekend, Bon Iver, Hot Chip, MGMT, Death Cab For Cutie, M83, Of Montreal og … Ida Maria gitt. For å nevne noen.
