ILM's Top 77 Albums of 2019

made peace yesterday that my #1 isn't placing and before the poll that my #2 wouldn't either but PUP not placing (my #6) does hurt a little

brad i dont think our beloved copeland album is gonna make it

unfortunately after spending time with their newest i have come to the conclusion that i love... maybe three pup songs total

Seeing them live may change that perspective! Nevertheless, that is fair.

glass beach still a big win for emo itp

part of the problem is that my roommate has taken to playing "see you at your funeral" on repeat, and i do not like that song

If I had remembered to vote for it, African Giant would have been in the top ten. I'll see myself out now.

PUP not placing (my #6) does hurt a little

It hurt me too. Perhaps I was overly optimistic. V. surprised my #7 likely won't place though! Will reveal what it is when it's clear it definitely won't as there is the outsidest chance

I voted for CRJ and OO and left the others to fend for themselves.

What the heck is "PUP"?

Inspired by its placement to put on the These New Puritans album again and remembered that my other reference point for it is Massive Attack’s 100th Window.

a canadian punk band xp

Will be surprised if Nick Cave misses the 77

if i'm basing it on my own ballot then either crj, octo octa, or big thief won. tbh i think it's big thief's or purple mountains' game to lose

nick cave definitely got 78'd, have you seen the complaining in that thread

xp Nick Cave is totally gonna get shut out

I think it will be big thief at 1 and purple mountains at 2. Knocked out that Octo Octa appears to have made it this high.

My guess is Purple Mountains win it, but I am so unconnected to the hivemind I'm probably wrong.

Think Big Thief will take it. Though I never know how many people vote for CRJ or Lana for that matter.

I would have thought:
3 Big Thief
2 LDR
1 Purple Mountains

Didn't Big Thief already place at #9?

shut it all down

What wow how did we all miss that :p

Oh, they had *two* albums nominated? That's just wrong.

Give some space to others too!

I'm thinking PM is not #1 as Moka wouldn't have used it as the fake out #51 post

Are we clear that was a fake out and not just a fuckup

i think it being fake 51 makes it being 1 more likely not less but let's see

moka said it was forks' idea yeah

And they're called big thief as well, talk about hiding in plain sight

i don't agree with big thief's release schedule rly either but if you gotta go you gotta go

Surely that's the reason why it *was* used as the fake 51, so it would be a shocker when it actually wins?

(xxxpost)

we should poll 'best pair of albums in a single calendar year', the fall could do p well in that. or ultravox!

real #51 was Lampchop iirc

Never really listened to much NC before but thought Ghosteen was fantastic xps

xxp Creedence would walk that

Herbie Hancock would be the winner of that poll with Sextant and Head Hunters in 1973.

the purple mountains placement will be revealed as fake when he wins the whole poll
