Not ignored this thread KC, but have been been wracking my brain to think of stuff from this year I've bought, that is from this year. Like yourself, think 99% of what I've physically bought has been older musics, compilations of older stuff or reissues.
Have listened to a lot of new stuff via Youtube, Bandcamp or spotify, but not picked up a lot of actual 2017 product. Think most of the last few years have been playing catch up from previous year tbh.

Hell, only band I saw was Shellac, so not even been out to gigs much.

Mate sent me a DL link to this 'best of' 2017 mix if anyones interested.....Quite a good mix of stuff.

Here's a fairly exhaustive list of 2017 releases with 7 or more reviews to get on the list....Wow, lot of stuff.
