It looks like it’s that time where people come out with their top albums for the year, so I figured it’s time for me to release my own. This is only the third year that I’ve done this, and it’s amazing how many albums that I’ve listened to this year! There have been so many great albums this year that it’s hard to neck it down to a small number. I’ll limit my list to the Top 50 of 2019.
I wish to thank all of these bands for producing such great material this year. If anybody says to me that there isn’t any good music these days, I’ll give them this list and suggest that they start listening ASAP because all of the albums are top notch.
Some of these I know the band members personally, so please consider this a huge THANK YOU for the hard work that you’ve done.
I know I’m missing a TON of albums, but I’m limiting them to what I’ve listened to so far. I just can’t listen to them all So much good new music this year!
And I feel bad ranking any of them because they’re all good, so please don’t feel bad that you’re not at the top of the rankings, because all of these albums are just top notch.
