4.) Lana Del Rey - "Lust for Life"

Anyone who's ever heard a song by Lana Del Rey knows how depressed she is and her songs don't really fit in with summer. However, her new singles "Love" and "Lust for Life" showcase a much happier side of her - which is perfect for summer 2017. And even comparing her album covers, there's an obvious difference and Lana is definitely happier. Her album is set to drop July 21st and it's bound to make your summer at least a little bit happier. Even Lana knows this summer will be good because she's finally happy.

3.) Envy on the Coast - "Ritual"

After 7 long years of fans not knowing if EOTC would be back or not, Ryan Hunter and Bryan Byrne came back to release a 6 song album (or EP) titled Ritual. This album is certainly more rock-y than the others on this list, but that doesn't make it any less essential. EOTC is a very experimental band and songs like "Virginia Girls" and "Lioness" provide a much-needed chiller aura than some pop songs on this list. If nothing, this album is good to relax to or listen to while aimlessly driving around in the country. #EOTCDXVI

2.) All Time Low - "Last Young Renegade"

This is another rockier album, but All Time Low is more pop-rock than Ritual. All Time Low has always had a habit of releasing "happy" albums, no matter what the content of the album was (Does anyone remember "Under a Paper Moon" on Dirty Work?). I'd argue that their new album doesn't have much sad content this time around, but it is still definitely a happier vibe. They even have a song on their new album dedicated to their fans - "Nice2KnoU", and if that's not the cutest thing a band has done for its fans, I'm not sure what is. FYI, if you want a good rock song to dance alone to, try "Afterglow" and thank me later.

1.) Halsey - "Hopeless Fountain Kingdom"

If I was just making a list of the greatest albums, Halsey would have two spots on the list and this one would be second (sorry, Casey). But because this album came out in June and it's really good, it made the top of the list. I'll be the first to admit that I hated "Now or Never" when it first came out, but deep down I knew it would be a summer song. Nearly every song on this album (and Badlands) has catchy verses, and beats that just make you want to dance no matter where you are or who you're with. I could go on for days about how much I love Halsey and think that she deserves to be on everyone's playlists year-round, she definitely should be your go-to artist this summer.
