Årets beste album 2023
Nok et fantastisk musikkår er tilbakelagt, og det har vært et veritabelt overflødighetshorn av sublime album, enten du liker solid rock, indie, pop, hiphop eller noe helt annet. Her har vi samlet et utvalg av de albumene som kritikerne har kåret til årets beste + en rekke av årets best anmeldte album som dessverre ikke nådde opp på topplistene.
I 2023 har vi sett veteraner som Depeche Mode, Peter Gabriel, Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters, Blur, PJ Harvey og mange andre komme tilbake med noen fenomenale album - for mange av dem noe av det beste de har levert på utallige år. Igjen er både pop- og R&B-sjangrene inne i en ny gullalder, og artister som Caroline Polachek, Olivia Rodrigo, Troye Sivan, Sampha og Taylor Swift imponerer igjen både kritikere og fans. I tillegg er det som vanlig mange fantastiske indieutgivelser som har fått velfortjent kjærlighet fra kritikerne.
