Feels like a minute since 2020; I think being a parent to a toddler has accelerated what already felt like a slip’n’side of time. Didn’t listen to as much music as a result but still came across some gems…
In no specific order here are the 20 albums that released in '21 that I enjoyed the most throughout the year.
