“In a year needed for some isolation and meditation, it helps to plug in some earbuds and escape with a brand new album. These are the top picks for albums of the year brought to you by the women of Passerbuys.”
With a bunch of new artists making their debut albums this year, it may have been a little more difficult for the women of Passerbuys to narrow down a choice.
