omg now this also feels too low!!!!!

TOO LOW, the Curator (imago), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:49 (six years ago)

too low

american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:50 (six years ago)

Knew it would make it. Another mostly good album I didn't vote for.

toilet-cleaning brain surgeon (pomenitul), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:50 (six years ago)

but i've had enough fights about it that i get why, i guess xp

american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:50 (six years ago)

But yeah, I thought it would be higher.

toilet-cleaning brain surgeon (pomenitul), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:50 (six years ago)

and this time i even voted for it! because it's great. first 4 tracks especially. glad she's gotten so good because she was kind of everywhere before and i wasn't sold haha

TOO LOW, the Curator (imago), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:50 (six years ago)

100% behind that assessment.

toilet-cleaning brain surgeon (pomenitul), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:51 (six years ago)

tbh the most remarkable thing about the Shura album, given how it sounds, is that it was produced by a bloke who was in ATHLETE

nashwan, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:51 (six years ago)

I docked All Mirrors a few spots because I thought it wouldn't need help.

Chris L, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:54 (six years ago)

I feel so lame w/r/t Angel Olsen cause I generally prefer her earlier sparer stuff which is usually an argument I hate

bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:54 (six years ago)

imago what was your GAPDY thing this year again¿

ymo sumac (NickB), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:56 (six years ago)

hating the Kali Malone a LOT less than anyone expected tbh. i really love organs tbf

TOO LOW, the Curator (imago), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:56 (six years ago)

BELFAP yo

TOO LOW, the Curator (imago), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:56 (six years ago)

well, we've blown A

TOO LOW, the Curator (imago), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:56 (six years ago)

which is the only one I was rly rooting for :(

TOO LOW, the Curator (imago), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:57 (six years ago)

You should check out Ellen Arkbro then, whose music I also find utterly vapid and ineffective.

toilet-cleaning brain surgeon (pomenitul), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:57 (six years ago)

we're not out of the woods yet pom, i could loathe this yet. thing is i'm not sure i'm ready to spend 2 hours finding out if so

TOO LOW, the Curator (imago), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:58 (six years ago)

Wow, I'm shocked Angel Olsen isn't at least 30 places higher. Easily my favourite album of hers.

kitchen person, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:59 (six years ago)

I also voted for PM, fwiw (it’s the only album on my ballot to place so far).

― dad genes (morrisp), Tuesday, February 4, 2020 9:46 PM

With Morrisp's comment I count eight separate people who said they voted for the Purple Mountains album, so the jig is up... Can you please now reveal the real #51?

Tuomas, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 19:59 (six years ago)

We're almost done for the day! Coming up our first and only TIE in this poll.

But first allow me to correct a mistake:

TOO LOW

american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:00 (six years ago)

No! I've been had!

toilet-cleaning brain surgeon (pomenitul), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:00 (six years ago)

this is truly new music imo. my no. 2

american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:00 (six years ago)

A damn fine Lambchop album that sounded like Lambchop without sounding like Lambchop.

Ngolo Cantwell (Chinaski), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:01 (six years ago)

That Kali Malone album sounds great on first listen, v beautiful

abcfsk, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:02 (six years ago)

ah good to see this place

But guess what? Nobody gives a toot!😂 (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:04 (six years ago)

this Kali Malone album us nice. Lol, I was expecting pop-trap from the name

doorstep jetski (dog latin), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:04 (six years ago)

love and own this lambchop album, wish I'd voted for it but glad it did just fine!

bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:07 (six years ago)

Thought the Angel Olsen was mostly an overwrought mess. Much prefer her older work, especially Burn Your Fire, and was surprised to see how well it did in eoy polls.

Indexed, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:08 (six years ago)

can't remember if i tried this lambchop

ciderpress, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:09 (six years ago)

a beautiful album that i couldn't quite squeeze onto my ballot

ooga booga-ing for the bourgeoisie (voodoo chili), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:10 (six years ago)

I've got zero so far and starting to worry that my three definite placers are not in fact definite.

emil.y, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:10 (six years ago)

OMG, the fix is in

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:11 (six years ago)

Is there auto tune on this latest Lambchop album?

Saxophone Of Futility (Michael B), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:12 (six years ago)

I think there was when I listened to it

Saxophone Of Futility (Michael B), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:12 (six years ago)

the Malone is losing me a little around track 4. if the first 3 tracks had been the whole album i'd be mildly enthusiastic about it

TOO LOW, the Curator (imago), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:13 (six years ago)

Lambchop was my #25. Should probably have left it off my ballot. It's good, but I much prefer Flotus.

Frederik B, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:13 (six years ago)

Melania?

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:14 (six years ago)

#41(TIE) - Kim Gordon - No Home Record (288 points, 10 votes)
New Solo Kim Gordon

✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:14 (six years ago)

wow a 10-way tie!!

bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:15 (six years ago)

I really dislike this new iteration of Lambchop, it feels both forced and half-formed at the same time.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:16 (six years ago)

respect to ilm for getting the kali malone album on the list, love it
autotune-era lambchop sucks

na (NA), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:16 (six years ago)

ah I missed that Lambchop was a correction durrr

bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 20:16 (six years ago)

Only listened to the Kim Gordon recently but I felt I had to vote for it. Like a 21st Century take on The Whitey Album imo
