Music Monday: 10 Best New Albums of 2022
Now that we've finally turned the corner and kicked off 2023, we were curious to see what some critics thought were the best new albums of 2022. Below are Rolling Stone's Top 10 Picks for 2022.
Their list actually features their Top 100 album picks of the entire year, but we wanted to pair it down to just the Top 10 for today. We've also gone ahead and added links to the albums on Apple Music and Spotify for you to steam them next time you're in your Jeep - hopefully headed to someplace off the beaten path.
Regardless of whether or not you agree with their picks, we just hope you're checking them out on our high rated Front SoundStage Upgrade for Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators.
Enjoy the list and let us know what your top new albums were from last year.
