Hello all, hope you're finding a way to enjoy the dying days of a year we'd all rather forget. If you can stomach it, I've rounded up my (nearly) top 10 favourite metal projects from 2020 in tonight's episode, and I finished off with a festive favourite from Bob Dylan's absolutely demonic album 'Christmas in the Heart' from 2009.

I was struck by how wrong it felt to try and distill the year down to 10 items so here's a full list i made in my notes app of music of all kinds that i enjoyed this year.
