MY TOP 20 FOR SEPTEMBER 2020

September was uncontrollable! So many new releases and there was quality actually. Some really impressive albums went out. Albums that leave a trace. Of course, I couldn't listen to all releases. However, I picked 20 out of the huge pile I managed to check out and which I liked the most.  Some great albums left out of this list though. Others may grow in the upcoming weeks too.

Now, just straight to 20 albums with variety in styles and genres, in no particular order. Except one - Flowers of Evil is my untouchable No.1 for August! ULVER - Flowers of Evil  Release Date: 28 August So emotional. Nostalgic. Painful. So me. My AOTY so far. TERMINAL NATION - Holocene Extinction Release Date: 7 A
