BEST OF 2022
Ok a few things to preface. 1) I didn't post reviews for a bunch more albums I listened to this year cuz I was getting overwhelmed but most of the ones I left out were 6/10 and under (and I still rated them all/included them in the competition for the best of year). It's my blog and I'm not gonna let it stress me out lol. 2) sorry that this is late. As aforementioned, I got a bit stressed about listening and reviewing a shit ton of albums but whatever. 3) For my top albums, they didn't end up aligning exactly with my top rated albums (although they mostly did). Instead, these were my favorite albums of the year. There's a slight difference there. But these were the albums that I listened to the most/returned to over and over/felt were doing something innovative and exciting and also were just great to listen to. 4) In total I ended up listening to and rating 150 albums in 2022! I've also linked to my spotify playlist: Best Songs of 2022
