Throughout December, CHIRP Radio presents its volunteers’ top albums of 2015. Our next list is from DJ and blog editor Tyler Clark.

I'm really bad at making objective good/better/best statements when it comes to music, so consider this a list of my personal favorites/albums from 2015 that I'm likely to return to in the future.
