2021 Album Review Project
—
This year, I want to more consciously listen to and think about music. To formalize this process, I've decided to pick albums to listen to start to finish several times, write my general thoughts down, and give a rating (just for fun).
My favorite songs from each of the albums are in a playlist here.
I stopped midway through the year because the weekly cadence started to feel like a chore and I lost focus on this project due to some other things going on.
