Another year has passed and we’ve been around, listening to new albums and checking out the live bands. But hibernation time is approaching once more, as the holidays are here and the shows cease to a temporary halt.

For the second year now, we want to leave you with a playlist of our staff favorite songs from the new albums – one song per album per staff member (so if you hear a few songs from the same album, you know it’ll be worth listening to).

Don’t forget to keep an eye open for our final blog of the year on December 31st – our 2017 Awards. You can read the past reports here: 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012

After that, we’ll see you next year when gig season starts up once more!

Happy holidays and have a great new year!
