Tops Albums 2017 de la presse, des blogs et des webzines

La valse des Tops albums 2017 a commencé. Comme chaque année vous n'y couperez pas, et comme chaque à année il y a à boire et à manger !

Pour cette année, on va essayer de ne pas trop cumuler les tops qui se ressemblent tous en ouvrant un peu plus sur les blogs spécialisés, histoire de d’y retrouver des choses qui ne nous ramènent pas au sempiternelles stars de la pop indé et du rap dont on nous a rabattus les oreilles toute l’année. Bon, c’est pas gagné quand même ! Et comme souvent, les meilleurs albums ne sont pas toujours les mieux placés.

Après Frank Ocean (2012) Kanye West (2013) The War on Drugs (2014) et Kendrick Lamar (2015), David Bowie (2016),  Kendrick Lamar semble bien parti pour être de nouveau vainqueur en 2017.

Et comme chaque année, n'hésitez pas à me communiquer votre top albums 2017 par mail on en commentaire.
