On the conclusion of our two-part year end extravaganza, it has all come down to this.

You have heard us discuss close to a 100 albums in 2024, and all of them are well worth your time, but in the end there is only room for 10 that we think are the best this year had to offer.

Thanks for listening. We’ll see ya next year.

On this edition of Discologist, Eduardo and Kevin are looking back to discuss some of their favorite releases of the year so far.

Over the past few years, Milwaukee’s Ladybird have been refining their sound on stages all over town and with the release of their debut album Amy Come On Home, it’s clear that all hard work has paid off. With roots firmly and unashamedly planted in the sounds of Uncle Tupelo and Drive-By Truckers, and a wit that echoes the work of John Prine, the four-piece outfit is just the shot in the arm that alt-country has been waiting for.
