Welcome to Post-Trash’s “Year in Review,” a feature with not much of a pre-determined length or no ranking, but a guide to the year that was. Things are tough out there for artists within the “underground,” but this isn’t the time or place to lament the struggle. This is a damn celebration. We like to think these features are about discovery and we hope you find something new to enjoy. The heart of Post-Trash is based entirely on our passion for music. Seems simple enough. As always, we encourage you to support the bands you care about. Buy music. Buy more music. Go to shows. Keep your ears to the ground. Have fun listening. We hope you’ll dig in and spread the word.

This list is determined mostly by our editors, a collection of the albums and EPs that we felt represented the best of 2022. Surprises abound. Stay tuned for our “Staff Picks” feature, with votes from many of our incredible contributors, who we could never be without. We’d like to thank everyone who reads Post-Trash, contributes to the site, and all the bands that trust us to cover their new releases. Constantly questioning our compulsions to share our opinions, all I can say is that Post-Trash is built on enthusiasm, and we’re here to fill a void. We’re excited to share the music we love with our corner of the internet.

Be sure to check out our “Further Listening” and “Staff Picks” features. Thanks. - DG
