Tis the season for year-end best-of lists, and The Record Exchange is pleased to bring you our 2021 Staff Picks!
Here’s a 2021 Top 10 from Thomas, who says, “So many great albums came out in 2021, it was so hard to narrow down to my favorite 10. Lots of great experimental indie rock and hip-hop this year, as well as some of my favorite singer-songwriters dropping great albums. Don’t be afraid to ask what some of my other favorite albums of 2021 are!”
