This is a massive collection of all the albums this year that I liked; they are done in Album Title - Artist format. The asterixes denote albums I haven't actually been able to download yet for whatever reason, but are by artists I am familiar with and have been recommended highly by other people.
Hope you enjoy! If there are ones you think I've overlooked or left out, PLEASE INCLUDE in the comments so I can listen myself. There are some that I know some people liked but I didn't include if I didn't like 'em, but whatever, that's why it's my list. Still though, it's kind of a master-list for me cuz it's practically everything that came out that I enjoyed this year, was a lot.
