I don’t know if I have a definitive list this year, but some albums I really enjoyed:

Bruce Springsteen - Letter to You
Paul McCartney - McCartney III
Laura Jane Grace - Stay Alive
The Killers - Imploding the Mirage
The Lawrence Arms - Skeleton Coast
Jeff Rosenstock - NO DREAM
Brian Fallon - Local Honey
Red City Radio - Paradise
Sam Russo - Back to the Party
PUP - This Place Sucks Ass EP
Alkaline Trio - EP

Probably missing a few but those were the ones I listened to the most.

Can’t believe the Gorillaz aren’t getting love on any of these lists. One of my favourite albums of the year.

RTJ4 takes my favourite album of the year.
