Top 20 Albums of the 2010s

The 2010s are over. Finished. Done. Well, not really. We carry our memories, our relationships into the future. And we also carry all of the amazing art that was created during this time, captured forever for us to revisit and for future generations to discover. I’m truly, truly grateful for the fact we live in…

Top 50 Albums of 2019

Well here we are. Another year finished, another year born anew for us to navigate. When you get down to it, the start of a new year is just another day beginning like every other day, but it’s nice to take a step back and look at what’s all happened on a macro sense. Patterns…

Top 50 Albums of 2018

Top 50 Albums of 2017

What an insane year. Looking back on 2017, I doubt it will make anyone’s “Top 10 Years of All Time” list (and if it does, you should probably cut off all communication with them). You know why and I know why. It was chaos with the worst parts of humanity being normalized day-by-day. But as…

Top 50 Albums of 2015

  Here we are again! Another year gone, another review of the best music that soundtracked our lives. To me, it seems the industry as a whole has gone through changes, but a lot of which point to previous decades. Not too long ago, I was having a discussion with someone as to what this…

Top 50 Albums of 2014

As with 2013, it is apparent that our music industry is bursting apart with creativity (although it would nice if it was bursting with $$$ as well to support our artists). While not quite the monster year that we saw in 2013, there is more than enough great music to keep us listening 24/7 without…

Top 50 Albums of 2013

I’ve said it several times this past year and I will say it again – 2013 was the best year of music since 1967 I stand behind that statement 100%. Although many would cry about how nothing will compare to the good old days, years from now, everyone will see just what a monumental year…
