MusicRadar

The end of 2010 is rapidly approaching, which means it's time to reminisce about everything that’s been great over the past twelve months. Over the last fortnight we’ve already let you know our favourite bits of guitar, tech and drum related music making gear, and now we turn to the music itself.

To that end, each of MusicRadar's staff members has chosen an album (along with a few contributions from our sister magazines) that they would like to highlight as something that's been dominating their stereo in 2010. Each album on the list has something about it that we - as a diverse bunch of musicians and music-lovers - think deserves an extra special bit of recognition and kudos.

This is all in no particular order - no top ten countdowns here - just personal selections from the people behind MusicRadar. Plus, we’ve added in plenty of sound clips so you can have a listen and see what we’re making a fuss about. Enjoy.
