We’ve made it through 2017 somehow, and we’re here to wrap up our favorite albums of the year. As always, you might notice some local standouts among nationally acclaimed albums. 2017 was a tough year, but the one shining light was having all of these incredible albums to help us make it out alright.
We also want to take a moment to give honorable mentions to some other incredible local releases that just missed entry to our year-end list:
- Avenue, Mass Ave & Lenox
- Baby!, Sunny F.L.
- Bad History Month, Dead and Loving It: An Introductory Exploration of Pessimysticism
- Birthing Hips, Urge to Merge
- Cousin Stizz, One Night Only
- Du Vide, 2015-2016
- Lina Tullgren, Won
- Vintage Lee, PiMP
