End of Year Report :: The Best of 2018 > Shopping to YMDSIH
There are 100+ releases from 2018 that are just freaking awesome. I have ordered my best of list in alphabetical order (by first name for individual artists because that’s how iTunes does it, ok), and broke that list down into five separate posts for the music I loved plus one post for some stuff I missed (aka off my radar).
If you like what you hear, considering buying the release (most of this music is available on bandcamp) or better yet, seek out these bands when they are on tour and purchase music/merch directly from the band. I hope you find something that you love.
This post is for S to Y: Shopping to YMDSIH.
