What are your favorite music releases in 2020?

Any genre and suggest how many you want, as long as it’s from 2020.



Bonus points if it’s from indie artist(s)!



I’m really into darksynth/retrowave, so here’s three of my heavy rotations from this year of 2020:



Mirror by Dimitri De Alencar - dark synth, heavy, “Wall Street Hyenas” is fantastic!



Virtuaverse.ost by MBR - another dark synth album that could well be a soundtrack for a cyberpunk game!



Electric Heart by Roxi Drive - a great Retrowave album from a great singer!

 

[A Link In Time]

Local H Lifers

They're a great rock band that I was exposed to last year. While some of their older albums are slightly better, this new one was also good.

 

[Chevywolf30]

Nah Nah Nah by Kanye West.
Andy Mineo came out with a great new album called Happy Thoughts.
Godzilla by Eminem.
Wolves by Big Sean and Post Malone.
God Taught me by Zauntee.

Run the Jewels' RTJ4 album was the single best thing to come out of 2020.

 

[TheGreatCthulhu]

Probably Demons & Wizards' latest album, III, gets my vote of the best power metal album of 2020.



AC/DC's new album, Powerup is also pretty good. Sure it doesn't have Malcolm Young, but everything is classic AC/DC.



Testament's Titans of Creation is a great thrash album that kinda went under the radar.



And in a rather strange twist for me, Molly Tuttle's But I'd Rather Be With You, is also fantastic. I'd recommend all of her stuff if you appreciate the fine art that is bluegrass.
