My 10 favourite albums of 2020

Even though 2020 felt like quite the disaster, there were some great musical moments to be had. Many bands released awesome albums during times where the world truly needed something good to look forward to. Even though I’ve done this annual summary of my favourite album releases before, never have I felt the list to be so vital and required.

A great album release was something worth its weight in gold this year. When so much went wrong, it was critical to enjoy these new musical moments.

Songs that say “Go!” … the running summary list

I’ve written three articles on this subject so far. The original Songs that say “Go!”, the cleverly titled follow-up More songs that say “Go!” and the genius third article Even more songs that say “Go!”. Well, since putting those articles together, I have amassed over 50 tracks that feature that motivational line/lyric … “Go!”

I figured I may as well keep a running list of all the songs in the list—not just those that have featured in the previous articles with their embedded videos of awesomeness.

Even more songs that say “Go!”

Truth be told, when I made my initial article/list for Songs that say “Go!”, I had no idea how many songs I’d end up with in my playlist. After the second article, I figured “Well, that must be just about all of them”.

All I can say now as I begin this third article is that I was wrong. This list could get quite large. To prove that point, here’s several more additions to the list for your listening and viewing pleasure.

Alphabet playlist of metal—the ‘Z’ fortnight

Back when I wrote the article for the M fortnight of this series, I started with Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm … which represented the number of M bands in the article as well as the tastiness of a playlist with that much variety. If I was to follow that same approach for this final playlist, the result would be Zzzzzz.

Yep. Six bands. That’s how many Z bands I could come up with—with a little help from friends. This will be one sleepy little article.
