20 from 2018. Some of my favorite albums this year
Although we are already some solid days into the new year, I still want to share some of my favorite albums from 2018 with you. It was a year full of interesting discoveries, promising debuts, rock-solid continuations as well as pleasant comebacks – and of some last minute changes to the list even while drafting this post (sorry, Alias Caylon & Mike Vennart). It was also the first year of my musical biography in which I somehow lost track of new releases for months, mostly for work reasons. While I do hope that 2018 will remain an exception in this respect, I am very happy with what it brought to my attention. So here is my list (in alphabetical order):
- Albert Hammond Jr. – Francis Trouble
- Alice in Chains – Rainier Fog
- Bass Drum of Death – Just Business
- Bodega – Endless Scroll
- Culture Abuse – Bay Dream
- Dan Mangan – More or Less
- The Dirty Nil – Master Volume
- The Frights – Hypochondriac
- Graveyard – Peace
- Hodja – The Flood
- The Joy Formidable – Aaarth
- Murder by Death – The Other Shore
- Pablo Matisse – Rise
- Pagan – Black Wash
- Parquet Courts – Wild Awake!
- Sooma – Sooma
- The Sore Losers – Gracias Señor
- Turnstile – Time & Space
- White Denim – Performance
- Zeal & Ardor – Strange Fruit
