As usual this list is super late. I actually started writing this in 2020, and just didn't get around to posting or editing it until the end of 2021  2022. Oops... Well i gave it a shot at least. I also did not do a breakdown of each album since i just want to get this published; In short Actors continues to be amazing, and Trent can do no wrong when working with other musicians.  For 2021 - The pandemic continued, but I did manage to get out a bit more this year and there were a few concerts that I even made it out too as well. Here is a quick list, and Ill try to have the 2022 list out "soon."  Top albums of the year, in my opinion for 2021: Actors - Acts of Worship Halsey - If I Can't Have Love I Want Power Devin Townsend - The Puzzle / Snuggles Pertubator - Lustful Sacraments Wingtips - Cutting Room Floor Cutting Room Floor by WINGTIPS Chvrches - Screen Violence Kat Von D - Love Made Me Do It Fortitude - Gojira
