2019 is coming to an end. It was a great year for me, but now I’m tired and coasting through the end of December playing video games and stuffing my face with Christmas treats. So pardon the brevity of the combined two week end-of-year blowout for release list. While you wait for 2020 to kick off, check out some of our end of year/decade lists: Stories of the Decade, Top 225 Albums of the Decade, Top 10s of 2019 by ME, Matt, Bram, Jeff, and Zenae, top 10 cover songs of 2019, Zenae’s top 10 concerts of 2019, Jeff’s top 5 black metal releases of the decade, and there’s probably some other one I’m missing that I’m confident you can find.
Merry whateverthefuck you celebrate. I’m going to bed.
