What were your top releases of 2023? Another year is coming to a close, and I thought it might be an idea to compile a list of the top 23 of 2023. It could be either albums released in 2023 or just your top plays of the year. Post your suggestions in the comments below, and I’ll add up the votes into a post at the start of January.
A couple of mine, off the top of my head (in no particular order):
- Crim - Cançons de Mort (2023) - Bandcamp
- Tube Alloys - Magnetic Point (2023) - Bandcamp
- Adrenochrome - In Memoriam (2023) - Bandcamp
- Home Front - Games of Power (2023) - Bandcamp
- Phane - Police System [EP] (2023) - Bandcamp
- Dogma - Disarm or Die (2023) - Bandcamp
- Death Pill - Death Pill [EP] (2023) - Bandcamp
Honourable mention (non-punk)
Tube Alloys would make my list aswell!
Late to the party but March - Get in (bandcamp)
the men - nyc!!
Usually i’m having a hard time to pick a definitive favorite. Not this year though. It is Härvest by Poison Ruïn. An instant classic if i’ve ever heard one and something of an essential ur-text of the still developing dungeon punk genre! They weren’t the first group to attempt this but the first to really develop the aesthetic into its own, distinct and eleborate thing, impossible to just file away under some pre-existing (sub)genre.
