My favourite albums of 2022 (so far)
It's that time of year again: 2022 has been gone for a few weeks. Anyone who tried to sell you on a "best of 2022" list before 2022 was over? SNAKEOIL.
This list will change as I spend even more time with these albums. I hate the idea of a AOTY list being a stagnant thing where we record our emotional reactions to albums without having an opportunity to put them down and revisit them a 2nd or 3rd time.
