So last year, I started a playlist for the blog and Facebook page, but I didn’t create it until…ah, late summer or early fall. Which means when I did my Top 30 of 2022, I had missed a lot of music.

Well, I created a playlist in January and have been adding new releases every week. I know I’m missing songs, but I am keeping up with as many bands as I possibly can (though I’m leaving out the big names, such as Asking Alexandria, The Smashing Pumpkins, Avenged Sevenfold, etc.; they get enough promotion). I am dividing this year’s singles into three separate playlists, each encompassing four months’ worth of releases, because otherwise the sheer number of songs – and the running time – will become overwhelming.

If you’re interested in checking them out, here are the links. It would be cool if you gave them a listen, or even just shared them. I want to help all these amazing bands/artists to be heard!

• Part I
• Part II

Next year, I’m only doing three months at a time. Lol.
