Guess what guys? It's that time of the year again! Some of you love it, most of you despise it. I simply find it inspiring and a wee bit entertaining to read what everyone's end of year picks/lists/charts consist of. My EP picks below are personal favorites that either moved me or brought life to music in my opinion. They're listed in order of when they were released starting with the earliest, and you'll find my #1 pick at the bottom. It was a great year for EP releases, and extremely hard to narrow it down to 13, so I included links for as many of them in this post for you to check out.
Thanks again for another year of nerding out on great tunes and all things music related, can't wait for what next year holds. Stay tuned for the top albums & songs post coming very, very soon.

My #1 EP of 2014?
Phoria's Display EP easily won my ears over as one of the most impressive releases of 2014. Not a day goes by without listening to this majestic body of work. If you haven't had a chance to listen, do your ears a favor and get to know this 5-piece from Brighton before they blow up.
Released on June 16th via X Novo Records.
