LDR was my #6, probably could or maybe should have ranked it higher but i was being slightly strategic with a couple albums.

Thank you, pollrunners! This has been a thoroughly stylish and enjoyable poll season

Well done everyone - despite my reservations, WB definitely deserved to beat Lana, so not a bad result. Thanks to the poll runners!

fascinated by terminal cheesecake

or maybe i'm just hungry
i know terminal cheesecake from of old, don't think i've listened to them once since 1990 though!
― ymo sumac (NickB), Thursday, 6 February 2020 22:35 (four years ago) link
absolutely would not have picked weyes blood winning it, huh. i knew it was liked but i didn't think there was winning the poll level enthusiasm for it here. it's fine but like the angel olsen album this year i found the extravagant arrangements made it hard to feel much of a connection to.
anyway, great rollout, thanks to all the poll-runners

Fire! Orchestra - Arrival
This was my #1 :( It's beautiful chamber-jazz, even has a Chic cover to please the crowds...
― seandalai, Thursday, 6 February 2020 22:36 (four years ago) link
...or not

i knew it was liked but i didn't think there was winning the poll level enthusiasm for it here
think that's just the nature of polls like this. an album that many ppl think is pretty good will beat all the albums that less ppl think are amazing.

Great poll results, excellent roll-out, fabulous images, well done all and especially our stalwart pollrunners!

Thanks again poll-runners!
― Nag! Nag! Nag!, Thursday, 6 February 2020 22:42 (four years ago) link
Thank you poll runners! Weyes Blood was my #2, so pleasantly surprised by the outcome - was expecting Purple Mountains or Lana Del Rey to take it.

Big thanks to the polrunners, lots to check out and revisit in the top 77 this year.
Tayhana - Tierra del Fuego
I listened to this the other day and liked it!

*pollrunners
so nobody liked that Brittany Howard record huh. in singles poll or here.

Great job, pollrunners!Can’t say I was feeling these results all that much, but tbh after the high(s) of the tracks rollout the only way was down. Currently thoroughly digging Khidja Şi Balabaş, which I hadn’t heard of before, so it’s all good.
― breastcrawl, Thursday, 6 February 2020 23:11 (four years ago) link
the images were totally incredible. moka, idk if you've ever been tapped to design cover art, but i'd hire you.

Are we getting more rockist as time goes on? Will we start voting for Paul Weller albums and talking about 'real' instruments?
― emil.y, Thursday, 6 February 2020 23:26 (four years ago) link
To Pimp a Butterfly retains the record for the most points (2204) and the most votes (62), but Kaputt received more #1 votes (12!) than any other album in the current era of EOY polling.
― seandalai, Thursday, 6 February 2020 23:28 (four years ago) link
We had more voters back then though, right?
― Tim F, Thursday, 6 February 2020 23:31 (four years ago) link

really happy that Tinashe made the top 10. it was my #1!I guess I'll have to give a try to Weyes Blood?
― Nourry, Friday, 7 February 2020 00:20 (four years ago) link
it's a really good record
what a year for music tbh
― american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 7 February 2020 00:21 (four years ago) link
Aside from King, this is the first album poll winner I liked a lot. Glad it beat LDR.
― beard papa, Friday, 7 February 2020 00:24 (four years ago) link
i'd probably rank them thusly
2017 Kendrick Lamar - DAMN.2011 Destroyer - Kaputt2015 Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly2018 Low - Double Negative2014 D'Angelo and the Vanguard - Black Messiah2016 KING - We Are KING2010 Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Food: The Son of Chico Dusty2012 Miguel - Kaleidoscope Dream2013 Haim - Days Are Gone

Thank you! I love doing the poll images so I don’t get too rusty. In one of my past incarnations I worked as a digital designer for Ogilvy & Mather, mostly doing apps & websites for their clients, nowadays I’m a club and bar owner so I don’t really design anymore, sometimes I do it for free to help friends or just for fun.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Friday, 7 February 2020 00:38 (four years ago) link
yes really great images, and great poll, thank you poll runners!
― Dan S, Friday, 7 February 2020 00:40 (four years ago) link
indeed!!
― bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Friday, 7 February 2020 01:01 (four years ago) link
I forgot that Low won last year. that was a wonderful thing.
― bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Friday, 7 February 2020 01:08 (four years ago) link
yes it was!
― Dan S, Friday, 7 February 2020 01:15 (four years ago) link
My biggest too low was Angel Olsen - expected that to crack the top ten, or at least come close.
― aphoristical, Friday, 7 February 2020 01:24 (four years ago) link
another thing i'm surprised didn't show up is the Kehlani album. thought that was even better than SweetSexySavage which was top 20 in 2017 but i guess no momentum here
― ufo, Friday, 7 February 2020 01:33 (four years ago) link
can someone post the full list recap please
