As 2023 draws to a shuddering halt the writers here at RPMHQ got together from their bases around the globe to offer up some suggestions as to what has shaped their playlists for 2023 and also the shows that left impressions on this fine body of men.

The podcast was done in two sittings with four of the handsome beasts sitting in for the first episode and five sitting in on the second. Without any spoilers hit the link and sit back – relax and pour a cold one as the RPM Online mob dishes the dirt on what’s hot in 2023. The first episode of the “Best of” features a motley crew of Kenny who also does a roaring trade in second-hand and new vinyl from his vinyl vault. Craggy from Brno also fronts the most excellent Craggy Collyde who released their debut album in 2023.

Sadly the internet gremlins got hold of the opening exchange where Kenny gave his favourite albums of 2023 which also included the latest Metallica album Thankfully the mercy of the UK internet didn’t take more of the exchange but I’m sure you’ll join me in thanking this bunch for their input in the last twelve months and it’s a pleasure to edit their contribution to RPM Online seeing as they all know their shit when it comes to music. So Thanks Kenny, Craggy, Dan & Gerald for your contributions thus far, and here’s to an even better 2024. Enjoy checking out their bands, fav records and what live shows they check into, and keep on contributing to the revolution because music goes round and round in this broad church.
