These 12 Reissues From The 2010s Brought Some Serious Heat


2010s Starter Pack Albums:
| #61 - #41 || #40 - #21 || #20 - #1 || Reissues |

We weren't going to do this today, but we checked Bandcamp on a hunch, and...

Surprisingly, almost all of them are actually there. So why not? Let's do this now.

We're certain the commodification of "nostalgia" had a lot to do with the surge in reissue quality throughout the 2010s, but also TMK is pro-archivist. Despite what Rolling Stone Magazine had to say about it, the best reissues of the 2010s weren't just re-packaging Sgt Pepper with the 12 best sounding outtakes of "Strawberry Fields."

Here they are...
