This is a list of the Best/Favorite Sounds I heard in 2023. And I heard many of them! I had to choose from about 450+ releases! I focused on full Album releases. No Live releases, No Various, No Best Of, No Split Albums, No Re-releases, No Reissues, No Box Sets, No 7inch Singles (obviously)

50 + 1* records that will Blow Your Mynd!

Psychedelic Rock, Psych something, Garage Rock, Space Rock, Jazz Rock, Folk Rock…

Check the Bands/Releases and if you like, buy their Albums!

• * the “+1” Album was initially released digitally through Bandcamp on 27 Oct 2022 but the LP edition was released on 23 Aug 2023
