I rarely bother with annual Top This or Top That roundups, but I would be remiss if I ignored the sheer volume of awesome records I stocked in the distro this year. 2018 was a shitshow in many ways, but it delivered in the music department, and I did my darndest to stock the distro with the choicest cuts. So I caved and threw together a quick list of some of my personal favorite records that were in heavy rotation on the turntable this past year.

• RIVER CULT – Halcyon Daze LP
• BIG NO – Steady Sounds Single 7″
• SALVATION – Sore Loser LP
• TEST / CHEPANG – Split 7″
• IRON CAGES – Indulgence 7″
• CHANGEÖRDER – Imbecile / Bronx Cheer 7″
• NO MAN – Devils Cast Long Shadows LP
• MOB TERROR – Superstimulus LP
• CASUAL BURN – Tomorrow Problem 7″
