CHIRP DJ writesCHIRP Radio’s Top 15 Albums of 2013!
The votes are in, the numbers have been counted, and we are pleased to present CHIRP Radio’s top 15 albums of 2013!
In expressing their favorite albums of the year, our volunteers cited over 200 albums from over 160 labels (including the most popular outlet, “Self-Released”). The records cover the width, depth, and breadth of the music spectrum. And in a CHIRP Radio end-of-year-best-of-list first, we have a tie for the top spot, with one album from arguably Chicago's biggest and most controversial musical force and another from Rock legends bringing another sonic mastepriece two decades after their previous album.
Here’s to another great year of music and many more to come. Happy New Year from all of us at CHIRP Radio!
