WHETHER your year was a more certified freak, or “fetch the bolt cutters,” the best songs of 2020 provided a brief escape from the turmoil outside our windows.
They offered a comforting shoulder to cry on, a lit match to long-simmering rage, and a temporary substitute for the dancefloors and mosh pits the pandemic stole from us. Until the day we get to gather again in sweaty clubs, packed basements, and sold-out arenas, we’ll keep turning to these tracks to soundtrack our lives.
On this roundup, there’s essentially an artist for every vibe or occasion: social uprising, apocalyptic brooding, even just blissful headphone escapism.
