This year was a pretty good one. There were no albums that got the full RRRRR review from me, but a dozen or so which recieved the next best thing, 4 and a half R's. As it happens, there seemed to be 30 albums that got RRRR or better, so therefore, I present you...

An observation: the number of Swedish bands on this list is high, strange! Apparently the Swedish way to handle melodies appeals to me. I am glad to say that there are quite a few Finnish acts on the list too. Brother Firetribe's EP would have been a contender for the top position, but I chose to stick to the full albums only.
If you want to check out my favourite songs of 2025, I've made a Spotify playlist!
