This year was really difficult for me to narrow down from, and just as hard to order the list itself. There are some absolutely fantastic albums that didn't make the cut, but I'm here to tell you why these albums did. Let's start with the Top 5. All of these albums mean a great deal to me for different reasons, and are either at - or near - the pinnacle of their respective genres in my opinion. The rest of the list comprises of IDM, Noise Rock, Trip-Hop, Avant-Garde Jazz and Hip Hop classics at least in my estimation. A list of truly high quality.
