Pesada e reverenciada publicação britânica desde o início dos anos 90, a revista MOJO se especializou não apenas em valorizar o rock, digamos, mais clássico, mas também em apontar as novas tendências e criar listas ótimas, não apenas as de melhores álbuns do ano.
Procurando por aí não é tão difícil de encontrar listas como “Top 100 músicas de protesto” ou “Top 100 piores músicas de todos os tempos”.
Mas estamos aqui para falar de 2024 e a publicação soltou um generoso ranking com 75 títulos, o que abre margem para que álbuns como “Happiness Bastards” (Black Crowes) e “Fearless Movemente” (Kamasi Washington) não sejam esquecidos.
Focando no Top 10, a MOJO colocou sua autoridade para lembrar de nomes mais veteranos, como Nick Cave e Kim Deal. Tem também os “nossos” The Lemon Twins e Kim Gordon, mostrando que a MOJO aprova o Popload Festival.
A liderança ficou com o Jack, amigo da Meg.
