It happens every year, without fail: I listen to hundreds of albums over the course of the year, find some I like, put them in an order representing how much I liked them, write some blurbs, and call it a day. Year End lists are arguably the piece de resistance of music blogging, and I'm really happy with the work we do here at Brutalitopia in that regard. However, in the same way I work hard and make my list, I similarly always miss things. Always. Trying to listen to all of the music put out in a calendar year is a Sisyphean undertaking, and there will always be stones that roll past the giant metaphorical boulder being pushed up the hill. And that's where this post comes in. Based on other year end lists I've read, some December-released promos I received, and other assorted influences, I started digging in to the albums I missed last year. And after a couple weeks of listening, I've found some that I really, really enjoy, to the point that I'm making a new Töp 10 list of albums I missed last year! ...which you knew if you read the heading of this article. So without further ado, here are the albums I missed last year that I really enjoyed and wish I would have heard sooner!
