We’ve halfway through 2023, and as a music publication, we are required by law to rank the top 50 albums thus far.
If you want to follow along throughout the year, we highlight three new albums each week in our free newsletter and add to our AOTY leaderboard.
Before we dive in, some self-promotion. If you collect vinyl, you must follow Twitter’s #1 vinyl deal finder. Expect about 5 to 10 tweets a day. Be sure to turn on notifications because some deals go fast.
