Favorite Albums of 2025 (Non-Hip Hop Edition) I already posted my favorite rap albums of 2025 earlier this month, and asked if anyone would be interested in a list of the other releases I enjoyed from last year. I think exactly one person said they were, which is good enough for me. Chart with titles included I thought 2025 was a solid year all around for new music, and surprisingly I was able to find at least a couple of albums within most of the genres I listen to regularly that stood out to me. It felt like I had had 4 or 5 new albums in rotation throughout the year, which might all sound completely different from the next and fit a different mood. I'm sure there's some quality albums I missed too, so let me know what your favorites were from last year. Peace. 1. Deafheaven - Lonely People With Power 2.
