2020 Albums of the Year

1. August Burns Red- Guardians. As usual, ABR does not disappoint. Non stop breakdowns, riffs and just all good tunes. It’s cool to see an album where any song can be a single. Favorite song on here is Bloodletter.

2. Bring Me The Horizon - Post Human: Survival Horror. After Amos, I had very low expectations for this one. Upon hearing I was blown away. It was nice to see them get their heavy sound again. Favorites on here are Dear Diary and Obey. 

3. Ballyhoo! - Message To the World. The guys are back again with their signature sound. Favorites on here are Scarlet Blue, Dark Sunglasses and Renegade. 

4. Colter Wall - If you’ve never heard of him, I like explaining him as Johnny Cash’s son, even though he isn’t. Deep voice and hell of a guitar player. The entire album is western cowboy themed. Each song makes me think I’m at a camp fire out west in the 1800s. Favorites on here are High & Mighty and Cowpoke.

5. Neck Deep - All Distortions Are Intentional. Favorites on here are Lowlife and When You Know. 

5. Hot Mulligan - You’ll Be Fine. Favorites on here *Equip Sunglasses* and Digging In. 

6. Sam Doores - Self Titled. Favorite song is Windmills

7. Like Moths To Flames - No Eternity in Gold. Favorites on here are Killing Whats Underneath, A Servant of Plague and Selective Sacrifice. 

8. Knuckle Puck - 20/20. Favorites on here are Tune You Out and What Took You So Long?

Runner ups are “ACDC - Power Up”,  “The Menzingers - From Exile” and “MGK- Tickets To My Downfall”

From the Reel Big Fish show on the eleventh, sorry I got it up so late.

This show rocked so unbelievably hard, and I even got a couple new bands out of it. Also, theres a special message at the end for all you lovelies from yours truly.
