Favourite Albums of 2018


Recommended Posts

I just discovered this band. Good stuff!  Have you heard their previous record from 2017?  I picked up both at the same time and I've only been able to listen to them once each.  So far I like the first one a little better, but both are really good.

Will check out more from your list.  We have had similar tastes in the past. 

I have not yet heard the first one, but have every intention in checking it out.

how did you get your hands on this album?

Just got to hear it. The internet is a beautiful thing.

Hope it gets an actual release.

hmmm... i think there were less albums that i really dug this year as compared to others, but there was still some really good stuff released. my musical discovery of the year was from Estonia of all places; Erki Parnoja released a live record this year, but last year's Efterglow is so good and probably my favorite record that was new to me this year.

 

here are some songs that i dug... maybe you did/will too?
