It feels like everyone and their mother came out with an album this year, and maybe some of them shouldn’t have. These are all of the album releases I caught and listened to, ranked into four categories:
Ear Blessings: Amazing. Angelic. I’m listening to it again and again.
Honorable Mentions: Such a good first listen, but I don’t think I want to listen a second time…
… Why?: There was literally no reason for the album to be made besides competing with literally everyone else who came out with an album.
So Close to Vomiting: The album was so bad, I almost threw up.
