Words by Tom Parker
We spotlight the first 15 albums of the two-part feature, ranked in no particular order.
Well that’s a wrap – 2020 is finished, finito, done, dun, gone, seeya, bye, catchya, fuck off… Where am I going with this?
We’re all relieved to say goodbye to the worst year of our lives, and while the grief of 2020 is behind us, there have been many musical nuggets that have helped pull us through.
If it wasn’t for the below albums, I’m not sure we would’ve coped, and so it’s to these artists that we all, Melburnian or not, give our utmost gratitude.
