Five overlooked modern albums destined to be cult classics

Far Out · 4 hours ago

This piece from Far Out Magazine highlights modern albums the writer believes have been unfairly overlooked but are set to become future cult classics, arguing that the sheer volume of new music released today means even devoted fans miss records worthy of long-term reverence. The author frames this as a positive rather than a loss, suggesting these "hidden gem" albums are the ones destined to be passed down and rediscovered in years to come.

The selections include Geese's 2023 record 3D Country, seen as a formative art-rock release overshadowed by their later album Getting Killed; Lorde's 2021 album Solar Power, a divisive departure from her pop sound that the writer says rewards close listening; Fcukers' 2026 debut Ö, tipped for future acclaim after the duo supported Harry Styles in São Paulo; Muna's 2026 release Dancing on the Wall, a darker political turn that received less attention than their earlier breakout; and Aldous Harding, noted for her intimate, understated style, though the article's text cuts off before detailing her chosen record.
