Good music can affect us in a way that almost no other auditory source can, and that sort of power deserves to be respected. When we want to show our respect for something, we try to find the best version of it and spend money on making it look the best as well. When it comes to music, the best way of creating a respectful look for music is to make a vinyl of it. Whether it is a song, a narration, a historical document, or any other kind of audio, some of the most important pieces of audio are saved on vinyl. Pop music has seen a major influx of such vinyl tracks and here are some of the recent tracks that we think you should buy and listen to.
Norman (expletive) Rockwell (Limited Edition) – Lana Del Rey
With an album cover that is uncensored and comes in lime green vinyl, this is a pop album that you simply cannot miss. Lana Del Rey has created some of the best pop songs in recent years and this album is full of some amazing pieces as well. According to the artist, the name of the album is inspired by a specific type of creative people that she runs repeatedly who recognize their genius and simply would not stop talking about themselves. However, she also felt like that stereotype was backed with some truth in these cases because these people were actually quite good. The cover of the album also sees Lana posing with Jack Nicholson’s grandson Duke Nicholson.
III (Limited Edition Red Vinyl) – Banks
Banks have had some great tracks come out in the past few years and to celebrate their success, this limited-edition vinyl was launched for the album ‘III’. The collection of songs on this album is quite amazing as well. There are some great tracks that you can certainly enjoy more on vinyl than you would on a digital track. Do check out songs like Till Now, Look What You’re Doing to Me, Godless, Alaska Propaganda, Stroke, and What About Love. The red color looks fantastic and the album art goes great with it as well. The whole red theme is certainly worthy of being appreciated the same amount as you would appreciate the red vinyl itself. It is also incredibly beautiful in case you wanted to gift the album to someone, making for both a cherished moment and album.
Lungs – Florence & Machine
Florence & Machine has had some incredibly popular songs come out over the years and Lungs is a vinyl album that brings out some of the best songs that the band has done. There are productions from very popular people including Stephen Mackey, Paul Epworth, James Ford, Charlie Hugall, and Eg White. With more than 3 million copies already sold globally, Lungs performed quite well, both on the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200. There are some amazing songs to listen to in this vinyl and you will certainly enjoy them a lot more this time around.
Harry Styles – Harry Styles
This is one of the most popular vinyl albums currently available in pop music. Considered to be the debut album of the superstar with the same name, the Harry Styles vinyl is an album worth listening to repeatedly. The experience on vinyl is certainly amplified as you enjoy songs like Sign of the Times, Meet Me in the Hallway, and several others. The One Direction band member has created several incredible songs that are a part of this album.
Get them all!
Being truly appreciative of pop music, we believe that choosing between these albums is simply not possible. We recommend that you try all of these and share your experience with us as well.
