EPs! My 25 favorites from this year, to be precise! A week after Rosy Overdrive wrapped its Top 100 Albums of 2025, the blog is sharing this smaller, (on average) more obscure, and all-around fun list. There’s a bunch of records in here that deserved way more attention this year than they ended up getting,Continue reading “Rosy Overdrive’s Top 25 EPs of 2025”

New Playlist: April 2025
To be perfectly honest with you, readers, right now, this moment, is the busiest that I (the person behind this blog) have been in a very long time (in terms of things outside of the world of Rosy Overdrive, I mean). So far I’ve been able to keep the blog posts coming at a normalContinue reading “New Playlist: April 2025”

Here we are! Rosy Overdrive’s 25 favorite albums of 2024, revealed today along with albums 50 through 26, and coming a day after albums 51 through 100.

New Playlist: June 2024
Now we’re at the real halfway mark of the year (not just the mid-June “music blog mid-year list season” mark of the year), it’s time to wrap up all the good music I heard in June of this year. This month’s playlist has a bunch of stuff I’ve written about already in some form, asContinue reading “New Playlist: June 2024”

New Playlist: March 2024
Here it is, friends: Rosy Overdrive’s March 2024 playlist/round-up. This one’s pretty much entirely new music, as I’ve been fully submerged in what 2024 has to offer in the past month. It’s also a little later than normal as I was on vacation the last week of March, but this is still just about theContinue reading “New Playlist: March 2024”
Rosy Overdrive’s Top 25 EPs of 2023
We’re still only a week out from the music world-shattering publication of Rosy Overdrive’s Top 100 Albums of 2023, but now it is time to take a look at a shorter but still very substantial list/release format. 2023 was another great year for EPs, and I’ve done my hardest to narrow my favorites down toContinue reading “Rosy Overdrive’s Top 25 EPs of 2023”
