TONY'S TOP HITS OF 2018
41 Simple Minds - The Signal and The Noise
Never could have predicted this! Muscular synth-rock akin to their early pre-stadium days. Sadly the album didn't live up to it.

40 Tonight Alive - Human Interaction
Belated hit from their previous album. Remember Pink doing pop-rock ballads before she succumbed to EDM?

TONY'S TOP HITS OF 2018
39 Kimbra - Like They Do On The TV
From the same part of the planet as Tonight Alive. Both radio and TV in the UK ignored this. Real pop surprise.
TONY'S TOP ALBUMS OF 2018
39 Nine Inch Nails - Bad Witch
Not as good as the mini-albums that preceded it. Because they classed this as an album it got far more attention.

37 Ex:Re - Romance
Apparently pronounced "x-ray", Elena Tonra from Daughter had a bigger impact on my charts than anything from her band. Like Banks or The XX.
TONY'S TOP ALBUMS OF 2018
37 Detachments - Chain Of Command (MA)
More dark synth.

TONY'S TOP HITS OF 2018
36 Clean Bandit with Marina and Luis Fonsi - Baby
As a Marina fan and not a CB one, this is relatively inferior for her but a major accomplishment for them. And great to see national commercial radio and Radio 2 finally add her.
TONY'S TOP ALBUMS OF 2018
36 Post Precious - Crown (MA)
More or less a compilation, so the position suffers. See last year's Hits.

32 Lily Kershaw - Another
Great artist also categorised as "indie" - a reductive term for anyone not in a guitar band.
TONY'S TOP ALBUMS OF 2018
32 Kacey Musgraves - Golden Hour
Her spark isn't as bright but this contains some greatness.
