My Top Albums of 2025

Life has been busy! I haven’t been able to listen to as many albums as I usually would in a year. I only did a top five list last year because I hadn’t been able to listen to a lot of albums and because lists with rounded numbers are so darn nice to look at. This year, I’ve heard seven really good albums which are definitely list-worthy. The other albums? I wouldn’t put them in my Top 15. While I have listened to more than fifteen albums this year, I feel I haven’t heard as much as I usually do (averaging 60 albums) to come up with a solid fifteen.

So to save myself the grief of looking back and saying, “That album only was in my Top 15 because it defaulted to be there,” I’m listing my seven favourite albums from 2025, followed by the usual Honourable Mentions and Most Disappointed. I’m also stepping away from album descriptions this year as I’m a busy guy, y’know?

And starting off at number seven…
