In our triple-sized winter finale, we welcome Sean's former Wounded Jukebox writer/editor Matt Argalas, who's now the senior editor of The Lazy Flame. Matt shares five tracks he enjoyed from Drop the Needle's 2017 lineup, as well as five of his own personal favorites from the year. The guys all look back on the year that was, both from a musical perspective as well as a recovery one. Artists include Perfume Genius, Vulfpeck, Yes Nice, Josh Ritter, iamamiwhoami, Dagny, Mellah, Dua Lipa, Sarah Klang, and Cataldo.
