We lost a lot of good musicians
this year. But that isn’t to say 2016 has been an awful year for music. In
terms of albums, there have been some impressive releases this year that show
we can all still look forward to the future with optimism. Here are my personal
favourites.
(psst! if you like lists don’t
forget to check out my favourite and least favourite tracks of the year. You
can also check out my favourite albums of 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012.)

20. Here Comes Washer – Washer
Brooklyn rock duo Washer serve up this satisfyingly slovenly
dish of angsty lyrics over rugged twangy guitars. There’s even a song about
getting drunk and eating the sun.
