I wanted to do my list for the best albums I listened to in 2025. There’s no particular order or ranking of the albums, all have been selected because I thought they were perfect or near-perfect albums that pushed music forward in 2025.

I’ve compiled all of these albums into a Spotify playlist, which you can listen to here.

Here is the list for my 2025 Albums Of The Year:
