Staff Picks: 2022 ALBUMS OF THE YEAR

It's that time of year where we've asked our team to give us their top 10 new releases of the year. This is always a fun, yet challenging time for us and it's another year of such a diverse list amongst us.

*please note each list is in no particular order, we like picking favorites but giving them an order is too hard for us so we don't*
