AtticRock's Top Albums of 2024

Another year, another 'best of' list, as always highly anticipated by our dear visitors, isn't it?
So, here's my top 12 albums and also some that almost made it to the list.
I wrote down my chosen tracks from each one and links to their official sites which I strongly encourage you to visit. It's a way (albeit modest) of supporting their art.
You can also listen to a playlist of 20 songs from 2024 that I loved!
 

 
Have a great 2025 with plenty of live music!
