2018 Albums • Page 12

I love 30 minute albums because that's how long it takes me to walk to work.

 

Same. I literally listen to music all day at work, I can get through quite a few albums a day.

 

I can’t even imagine how much worse work would be if I had to sit there in silence haha

 

I work in a restaurant so I can't listen to music on the job. That's why I don't listen to many albums in a year.

 

Wow, some great albums on here! What did you like best?

 

update

 

Haha, well I’m glad you like the list! I don’t know if you’ll be quite so impressed when I put my list for this month, lol!

In any case, on a sheer visceral enjoyment level, I’d honestly say the Goo Goo Dolls live album, although I got a lot out of The 1975 And was really surprised at how much I was able to roll with the newest Radiohead album!

Anything there that really stood out for you personally?

 

I’ve got to listen to that live GGD album, never have. I am a huge 1975 and Radiohead fan, so it was cool to see someone diving in for the first time.

 

Confession time: I don't think I've listened to a single album from 2018 except a once-over on Culture II. I will have ~1000% more free time this summer than I've had the past few months or will have in the fall/winter so please quote me with your favs from the year so far if you feel like it. Thanks!
