Favourite Albums of 2018

Recommended Posts

As the year is coming to an end and record releases start to wind down for the year, I though it would be a good time to start compile an end of year list. There are a couple of different music threads which people sometimes post their lists in so I thought I start a new one where we can all post our favourite release of the year.

So, mine are...

Its been a strange year for me. When the year started i was determined to listen to music as it was released but like last year ive spent 95% of my time listening to podcasts. I dont think i can realistically put together a list. I do appreciate everyone elses though, im always after recommendations.

At the end of last year i listened to the That's Not Metal album of the year podcast and got some cracking albums from that list that i have been listening too this year so ill probably end up doing the same for 2018's albums in 2019.
