The Board Dot's Best Releases of 2020 (lists only)

[Timbo]

With the posting of the first official year end list by Rough Trade today, I hereby announce the start of the Season of the List. You should know the drill by now.

- Numbered lists with a clear indicator as to what your top album is in the following format 

    1. Artist - Title 
    2. Artist - Title 
    3. Artist - Title

- Up to 50 releases will be counted, anything listed after is welcome, but please spoiler tag it. Lists need at least 20 releases to be counted. 
- Release is defined as albums, EPs, and mixtapes. Compilations, greatest hits, and live albums generally do not count, but will be handled on a case by case circumstance. (i.e. the live release is of all original material never released prior) 
- Use this thread to post lists only
- Use this thread for discussion including questions: theboarddot.proboards.com/thread/676/best-albums-2020-discussion-thread
- Deadline for lists is December 20th @ midnight CST


To qualify, releases need to have officially dropped between Jan 1st, 2020 to December 18th, 2020. 2021 leaks do not count. I can't think of anything that came out in Dec. 2019 that could potentially be contested but by all means make a case for one if you want. If there are releases that are contested and deemed ineligible I'll update this first post with them below.
