THE ALL THINGS LOUD SONG OF THE YEAR (25-1)

Here at All Things Loud, we’ve spent the last few weeks meticulously selecting and analysing the 50 best pieces of music to see the light of day in 2018. Following hours and hours of streaming, as well as swathes of disagreements and list re-shuffles, we’ve finally come to a unanimous decision: a Top 50 which contains a mixture of music from all corners of the musical spectrum, and one which should do justice a year which most certainly has not been very easy on multiple levels.
