Every day this week, critics from The Saturday Paper and beyond are bringing you their top picks of the year. 

2024 was a blockbuster year in music: Beyonce went country, Taylor Swift went everywhere, and we all went Brat. 

Today, with The Saturday Paper’s music critic Shaad D’Souza, we’re exploring the albums that defined the year. 

That includes Charli XCX of course, but also a surprising new album from Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon and a tender exploration of modern masculinity by MJ Lenderman.
