It’s the age-old question, what would you bring to a deserted island?? Well, allow me to take that one step further. Life is boring without music so what better way to keep yourself entertained than to bring your favourite albums with you. Which albums would you bring with you to a deserted island? Here are my picks.

Weezer – Blue Album

Do you have an album that’s just been there for your whole life? That’s this album for me. The debut album of these alt-rock legends also happens to be my favourite of their offerings. Weezer was the first alternative band I really got into (also my favourite band to this day) and this album was the first one I bought on iTunes back in the day. It carries lots of memories for me but also has their best songs on it too. Say It Ain’t So and Buddy Holly are songs that everyone knows but the lesser-known songs like Only In Dreams are just as great.

22, A Million – Bon Iver

This is one of those albums that can never get old. It’s like one of those mind-bending movies that you see something new in every time you watch it. There’s always a new element that pokes its way out every time I put this album on. It also feels like there’s a song for every mood on it. It’s definitely not everyone’s cup of tea but I’ll take the whole teapot any day.

A/B – Kaleo

This album just plain rocks! There are no two ways about it. It’s a clean feeling blues-folk-rock record with unique vocals and vintage-sounding guitars. These boys from Iceland really know how to make a good tune. This one also has a song for every mood. If you’re trying to party put on No Good, Glass House, or Hot Blood. But if you’re looking for a chill time Way Down We Go, All The Pretty Girls, or Save Yourself have you covered. I also love the inclusion of a song in their native language. It adds a personal touch to the album.

I’m sure I could pick about ten albums to bring with me but I won’t bore you with that. Maybe for another time…

Let us know what albums you’d take with you!
