Bit late but I just wanted to beat Reece to it: My Top Music of 2018

[Shaun]

Can't be arsed with big countdowns and all that since I've left it far too late (literally just finished my last album now, which was Blood Orange in case anyone is interested). So here's some images with my top 50 albums, and top 100 songs (bar 10, which I will countdown because that's the important bit :))

For context, the best score I gave to an album in 2018 was "9/10", and I gave that to the top 7 albums below. Everything else ranged from 8.5 to 7/10.

If anyone is interested, I also gave a quick review of all these other albums that didn't make the top 50. So if anyone wanted to know just how much I hate Bebe Rexha, click the spoiler.

All of the albums from 50th-41st are also albums I gave "7/10" but I guess I liked them *just* better than these four.

I was really underwhelmed by Robyn’s new album :(
