This past semester, the web writers grew to a team of 20 writers, the biggest team our staff has seen in years. With a bigger team, there’s been such a diverse taste in music which almost makes this list hard to make. Well, that and the constant stream of music, both good and bad, that has been released this year. Nevertheless, the ranking of the top 50 albums has become a favorite among the web writers, who graciously gave up a whole Saturday before finals to discuss some of the best albums of 2019. The WPGU writing staff proudly presents our top 50 albums and EPs of 2019, along with a writeup of each staff member’s personal favorite album of 2019. Enjoy!
