Het beste van 2024 volgens Lust For Life (jaarlijstjes)

2024 was het jaar van The Cure. Die conclusie kunnen we wel trekken uit de jaarlijstjes van onze medewerkers. In Lust For Life 147 (vanaf 20 december in de winkel) vertellen zij over hun favoriete platen van 2024 en in tegenstelling tot vorig jaar valt er deze keer een duidelijke winnaar aan te wijzen: Songs Of A Lost World van Robert Smith en co. is de enige plaat die bij meerdere schrijvers op nummer 1 staat. Maar als we alle top 10-lijstjes onder elkaar zetten, blijken naast de comebackrelease van The Cure meer albums populair bij verschillende medewerkers. Zo duiken ook de nieuwste wapenfeiten van de Ierse rocksensatie Fontaines D.C., countryster Zach Bryan, het dit jaar debuterende The Last Dinner Party en de hardrockveteranen van Deep Purple meerdere keren op. Bekijk alle jaarlijstjes (plus de favoriete concerten van de schrijvers) hieronder!
