Brian's Favorite 40 Albums of 2013

To me, 2013 was a really great year for music. When making this list, every album from pretty much 33 up to 2 I wish was higher on the list, and any album in the top 10 could've been number 1, they were all that good to my ears. I won't belabor this with a lot of writing, hopefully you'll find something you enjoy out of this. Also, check out my favorite song from each album below. Thanks for reading!
