It’s been really difficult for me to narrow it down to just 20 records I enjoyed this year but it’s all about rank apparently. So we’re breaking the template this year and I’ll give you almost 100 or probably 100 really good releases I loved this year. Seems like more than you bargained for when you started reading this.
This list is in no particular order at all but merely releases I listened to that I thought was good and took the time to write down and came back to a few times. This includes recommendations by some very close friends. Enjoy!
Side-note: I’m a bit annoyed at the fact that the new Deathhammer and Vomitor records are not out yet and I will continue being petty about it well into 2018 util it’s eventual release.
