Jaarlijstjes van lezers

Via onze nieuwsbief vroegen we lezers naar hun jaarlijstje met de 10 beste albums van 2025. Velen gaven gehoor aan die oproep, maar helaas waren het er niet genoeg om daar een HeavenlezersTop20 uit samen te stellen voor publicatie in ons magazine. Onder dankzegging aan iedereen die een lijstje instuurde, publiceren we ze hier op de site. Zodat geen enkele album onopgemerkt zal blijven.
