Halloween is over and you've collected tons of candy. Now it's time to create a soundtrack for sitting in a beanbag chair, stuffing yourself with Mounds bars, and throwing the rappers on the floor while playing GTA5.

Good move: We've got you covered.

This month was a solid one for new music, especially in hip-hop's underground. Justin Davis (@OGJOHNNY5) looked at the latest release from Los Angeles's own Dom Kennedy, while David Drake (@somanyshrimp) spent time listening to Tennessee duo Starlito and Don Trip and Detroit's Boldy James. Khal (@khal) explored the latest big footwork release, and Jason Parham (@nonlinearnotes) shared his take on a very promising new singer who you'll no doubt be hearing a lot more from in the future.

All that and more as we take a look at the Best Albums of October 2013.

Written by Justin Davis (@OGJOHNNY5), David Drake (@somanyshrimp), Insanul Ahmed (@incilin), khal (@khal), Jacob Moore (@PigsAndPlans), and Jason Parham (@nonlinearnotes).
