Best Albums 2021 - Top 50 - (50 - 41)

Now we are close to the end....of this half shitty year, yes it has been a bit better that 2020, and hopefully we will be sorta back on track next year. It's December 19th, no snow, plus degrees, no winter, it's dark and I have a job, much better than last year.

And once again during this period I though that I will spread some joy with an album list with the best albums for this musical year.

As usual, I have spent more money than I can afford on records. But hey, you only live once. A rule to qualify for the Album list is that I must own a physical copy, NOT a digital edition. That makes things a little easier to choose, but on the other hand, it might be so that a few might drop out as well. I would also like to point out that this list is my choice, no one else's. If you agree or disagree with my choices, feel free to leave a comment.

That said, let's move on with the first batch.

These are this year's best albums between 50 - 41. Where you get the first 10 at once.

50. DINOSAUR JR - ”Sweep It Into Space”

A really strong release from DINOSAUR JR., "Sweep It Into Space" is a must-have for any DINO fan and well worth checking up for any other. Highly recommended.

49. PART CHIMP - ”Drool”

"Drool" is made during lock up and burned-out amplifiers, heavy riffing, noisy sound with stoner alike vibe.

All you need in search of love and adventure.

43. KING GIZZARD AND THE LIZARD WIZARD - "Butterfly 3000"

Similar to its two predecessors, "Butterfly 3000" was executed in isolation, recorded entirely in the band members’ own homes, their studio and rehearsal space remaining out-of-bounds.

42. ALASTOR - ”Onwards And Downwards”

"Onwards And Downwards" contains seven spooky tunes with a run time of 46 minutes of old-school heavy rock, with a mix between doom metal and psychedelic hard rock. I do enjoy this album and highly recommend to get a copy wile you can!

41. NEIL YOUNG - ”Barn”

"Barn" captures this legendary band in their element - in the wild, their easy humor, their brotherhood, their humanity, and of course, the music, live, recorded in their unique spontaneous way.
