They're baahaack! For the fifth year in a row I am doing my own, personal yearlists on this site. Want to check out the old ones? Just click on one of the links below:
YEARLISTS 2014 | YEARLISTS 2015 | YEARLISTS 2016 | YEARLISTS 2017
As for 2018's lists, I am turning things around a bit... not really. The rules I apply are plain and simple, but for those that don't know:
1. I am biased as fuck, deal with it.
2. I must own the release, only physical is real. Fuck MP3's.
3. No reissues, compilations or live registrations. Splits are allowed.
4. If your band is in one list, it wont be in another - just start more bands.
5. I like more genres, but you'll only find Oi!, punk and hardcore in these lists - for obvious reasons.
6. Exceptions are always possible.
7. Though not exactly a rule... I don't own / or have heard EVERY release of 2018! Keep that in mind...
Ok, let's go!
