If you follow along with the microBLOG on this site you have probably noticed that I try to attend a lot of concerts throughout the year. Besides spending most of my free time exploring the outdoors, music is also an important part of my life. A lot of great music came out this year and I’d like to take the time to highlight some of my favorite albums that came out this year. I’m happy to report that I was also able to see many of these bands live this year. Hopefully I will be able to catch the ones I missed in 2018.
This year there were a couple of albums that finally came out that I’ve been waiting to hear for a long time (DIVISIONS, Dangerkids, Nothing More). There were also a few surprises by brand new artists that emerged this year (Thousand Below, DED). Surprisingly, there were also a couple of albums I really liked that were released by artists I previously didn’t care much for (Palisades, Miss May I, Like Moths To Flames).
I have listed my favorite albums of 2017 below in no particular order. You can also check out my picks from previous years by following these links: [2016] [2015] [2014]
