Het beste van 2022 volgens Lust For Life

Het leuke van de redactie van een muziekblad is dat iedereen een volstrekt unieke smaak heeft. De jaarlijstjes van onze medewerkers verschillen dan ook – als vanouds – behoorlijk van elkaar, al waren er ook platen die duidelijk in meer dan één straatje pasten. Zo deed nieuw werk van Porcupine Tree, Marillion, Editors en Weyes Blood het goed bij meerdere schrijvers. In Lust For Life 127 (vanaf 21 december in de winkel) vertelt een aantal redactieleden over één favoriet album, maar welke andere releases moet je volgens hen beluisterd hebben? En wat waren hun favoriete concerten van dit jaar? Je leest het hieronder!
