Az LCD Soundsystem, Lorde és Kendrick Lamar LP-i az év albumai a vezető brit magazinoknál

A listaszezont aligha lehet túl sokkal korábban kezdeni, hiszen már évek óta november közepén összegeznek évet a nyomtatásban is megjelenő brit zenei magazinok. Az Uncut kezdte a sort, aztán a Mojo, a Q és a New Musical Express is közzétette az év albumai listáit. 2017 nem produkált konszenzusos csúcslemezeket, de persze a termésből azért így is, úgy is kiemelődik néhány előadó, aki végül mégis képvisel egyfajta közmegegyezést. Idén eddig az LCD Soundsystem, Kendrick Lamar és Lorde 2017-es kiadványai kapják a reflektorfényt. A teljes listák alább.
