Guerrilla Candy’s favorite albums of 2019

It’s no secret that I didn’t publish a whole lot of blog posts here on Guerrilla Candy in 2019. In fact, this is only the fourth (!) post on the site all year. But just because I didn’t write a whole lot about music this year doesn’t mean I didn’t listen to a whole lot of music this year.
