Well, it’s somehow that time again. 2018 was an interesting and excellent year in many different ways, and of course there was a plethora of great music. There were plenty of excellent singles, and I think there were also a lot of wall-to-wall great albums. Even so, I think I can definitely classify this year as one in which I was “behind” on music - I just don’t think I was able to listen and explore as much as I really wanted to.
But these were the ones I enjoyed the most: in alphabetical order, here are my favorite albums of 2018, along with a link to their respective pages on Apple Music.
Andrew Bayer - In My Last Life
Jon Bellion - Glory Sound Prep
The Chainsmokers - Sick Boy
Chromeo - Head Over Heels
Drake - Scorpion
El Ten Eleven - Banker’s Hill
Florence + The Machine - High As Hope
Imagine Dragons - Origins
Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness - Upside Down Flowers
Owl City - Cinematic
The Presets - Hi Viz
The 1975 - A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships
