Tops Albums 2018 de la presse, des blogs et des webzines

C’est parti pour le grand récapitulatif des Tops albums de 2018. Avec The Wire, Pitchfork, NPR Music, Rough Trade, NME, et tous les sites musicaux français habituels.

Après Frank Ocean (2012) Kanye West (2013) The War on Drugs (2014) et Kendrick Lamar (2015), David Bowie (2016),  Kendrick Lamar (2017) qui sera le grand vainqueur de l’année 2018 ? Difficle à dire car pour la première fois, les classements sont assez différents les uns des autres comme vous pourrez le voir.

Et comme chaque année, n’hésitez pas à nous communiquer votre top albums par mail on en commentaire.
La liste des tops albums est mise à jour réguliérement, au fil de leur parution.
