This week we’re running down our best albums of 2020. Regardless of the dystopian nightmare that the world has become, these artists managed to bring us some honest to god joy in this train wreck of a year. We’re eternally grateful to everyone who’s put out music this year, not just to those on this list. Although the ones on this list kick slightly more ass than everyone else. Happy New Year, everyone.
Closing track: “See You Next Fall” by All Them Witches
