Radio LBB: SIREN’s Top 22 from '22

What a year 2022 has been! It's crazy when you think about it, but the truth is we've never been as close to the future as we have been this very year - and while we're sure many of you will argue that this is true of all years and therefore arbitrary waffle, we at SIREN instead cast our minds back to how it has felt to live in this brave new world and the epic journey we have been on as we lap the sun one more time - from the appointment of our new King, to the first Winter World Cup and the terrifying rise of machines (AI created the thumbnail of this article!!).

But as always, we're mostly reminded of the songs and sounds that made their own journey from the tips of our eardrums to the very depths of our hearts. So without further ado, we present to you SIREN's top 22 from ’22.
