As the year comes to a close, we were interested in learning more about what our readers listened to this year and what made their own Best Of lists! While I (Kristin) have polled the sh*t out of my Instagram followers over the years, basically begging them to share with me what their favorite music was at the end of the year, this is our first time actually polling them through a legitimate method (if you count Google Forms as legitimate? I do).
The albums that came up weren’t super shocking, BUT the ones that were the most popular actually were pretty surprising!
