Albums of the Year 2020
There have been so many incredible albums released in 2020, it was so hard to choose the 20 to put on this list and then put them in order too...That being said, after some time of deliberating with myself I managed to create a list I was happy with. Even in 2020 I still love listening to albums and like a complete body of work. It's how I define points in my life and in an artist or bands career. These are the albums that I kept coming back to in 2020 and though I didn't end up writing reviews for all of them on here, I have still enjoyed listening to these albums a lot this year through everything.
But first, here are my honourable mentions, the albums that didn't quite make the list but I still loved listening to.

There you have it, my top 20 albums of 2020. I highly recommend giving these albums a listen if you haven't already as they are all well worth a listen. I will link any reviews I did of these albums at the end of this post, though my thoughts may have varied slightly on some of the albums after more time spent listening to them.
