Top 30 Of 2020: A Non-exhaustive Summary Of Some Of The Highlights Of The Lowlight Year

I don't think these are necessarily the best 30 albums of this year, but they're the ones that have I guess endured in my psyche and inspiried revisits more than most others. I was tempted to do a top 50, but after around #26 or so, I found myself confronted with about 50 albums that could've conceivably made it in, most of which I hadn't relistened to enough to rank above the others with confidence.

1.Psychonaut - Unfold The God Man
2.Elder - Omens
3.Enslaved - Utgard
4.Regarde Les Hommes Tomber - Ascension
5.Pure Reason Revolution - Eupnea

Tantric Trance Tales: A Yogi's Journey Through 2020

Ask and you shall receive. Let's see if I manage to keep up with it this time.

This list follows in the vein of the previous ones I did for 2015, 16, and 18. Here I'm chronicling my discoveries of albums from this year that generate that mystical lulling, hypnotizing, and all around otherwordly feeling I so insatiably lust for. Inevitably drone, ambient, and psychedelic music will be the most featured here, but if anything considerably sends me "into the zone" as it were, it's up for inclusion.

1.Tortuga - Deities
2.Dragged Into Sunlight - Terminal Aggressor II
3.Lotus Thief - Oresteia
4.Staurophagia - Sidereal Sacraments
5.Garganjua - Toward The Sun
