2020 was a year like nothing I’ve ever experienced—a total upending of our way of life. Fortunately there has been some amazing music to keep me company while I stay home every day.
It’s also been the year of the single—more and more artists are releasing singles that are not tied to any albums, in a return to the early days of rock n roll. So for the first time, my Top Track of 2020 is a single, by Chicago’s own SuperKnova: SuperKnova / “LSD Heartbreak” / single / self-released
Some runner-up tracks of the year that I also loved:
Serengeti / “Field of Fire” / Discoken / Fake Hour Inc.
U.S. Girls / “$ American Dollars” / Heavy Light / 4AD
Emily Edrosa / “Drinking During the Day” / Another Wave Is Coming / Park the Van

DJ Confession: Ever since Discmen were outmoded by MP3 players, I rarely have the attention span for full albums (hence the lengthy Top Songs list at the bottom of this post). So for an LP to make my annual list is a feat of audio engineering and creative brilliance. These are the albums that kept me riveted in 2020. [Playlist]
