Another year has come and gone and with it a host of new music releases. Going through my collection I decided to put every new album I got this year in order from best to worst. The order is based in part from the ratings from my
RYM profile and from my repeated listening which may have changed what I thought about the album from it's initial listen to now. If you disagree with the order, be my guest and voice your opinion, but it's not gonna change the order.
