This week it's the Indie Basement picks for best LPs of 2017, tilting heavily to classic indie, college rock, and more.

"I'm always stupefied when year-end list time rolls around. Especially when I see folks post shit like their '100 favorite albums of the year.'

That would be like ranking all the meals for the year, sunrises, or bowel movements. Utter insanity." - Protomartyr's Joe Casey.

It's harder and harder to figure out what really qualifies as a ”new” artist, but here are 20 that we love that are at least new-ish, from Phoebe Bridgers to Vagabon to Cardi B.

Fujiya & Miyagi will be in North America for dates in the spring.
