Albums I Bought That Were Released This Year

I’m currently working on my top albums and songs of the year. It is a rather lengthy process, but I should have it all done by Christmas. The first phase: writing out all the albums I bought this year (that were also released this year). If you thought an album totally rocked and I didn’t include it in “my top albums of the year”, it might have been because I never listened to it. Obviously, I only selected albums that I listened to and owned. Here’s my list to chose from this year:
