October 23, 201212 yr santogold YESSS. perfection :wub: i think santogold / M.I.A / robyn (her other body talks??? maybe?) idk who else rly lmao i can't remember who we really have left!
October 23, 201212 yr This list is actually amazing...I'll definitely check out the ones I haven't listened to yet as the others would basically all be in my top 30 or whatever!
October 23, 201212 yr Ooh "Sound of Silver". Completely forgot about that! :wub: So it's between M.I.A. and Arcade Fire. Would be more keen for a predictable "Funeral" win to be honest... EDIT- Yay. Thanks for organising/presenting this Tony. Edited October 23, 201212 yr by Doctor Blind

October 23, 201212 yr Can we have the list with points, I need to know how badly I damaged my favourites!
October 23, 201212 yr Oops must've jinxed it. Still, never thought it would get as high as #2! Seriously amazing list overall. The top 10 is pretty perfect (although I definitely wouldn't have 'Lungs' that high).
October 23, 201212 yr Author Can we have the list with points, I need to know how badly I damaged my favourites! see above
October 23, 201212 yr Just been revisiting the other thread and 7 of my 30 actually made it. Good to see M.I.A. finished 2nd, it's (still) fresh and daring. Thanks for this countdown! This was fast indeed. But yeah, not much need in dragging it out I guess.
October 23, 201212 yr see above Thank you Tony, most kind. I'm certain that I would have added to the points total of the following: 4 Sufjan Stevens 'Illinois' 132 6 30 7 Robyn - Body Talk 127 7 26 10 Bon Iver 'Bon Iver' 102 5 28 12 Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles (II) 95 6 26 16 Robyn - Robyn 87 4 29 20 Janelle Monáe - The ArchAndroid (2010) 78 3 29 24 Yeah Yeah Yeahs - It's Blitz! 75 5 26 28 Knife - Silent Shout (2006) 70 6 28 29 iamamiwhoami - kin 69 5 21 35 Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights 59 4 25 38 Joanna Newsom - Ys 55 2 30 42 M83 - Saturdays = Youth 52 5 29 43 Postal Service - Give Up 52 2 29 47 Radiohead - Kid A 51 2 30 Possibly some of the others too but the above are definites. Such a strong final list actually, very little there that I don't at least regard as being good. Plus plenty of amazing albums to top it off nicely.
October 23, 201212 yr Erm, not a single Animal Collective or Sigur Rós album WHAT?! Not the best of taste, Buzzjack. These are albums I voted for that I think deserved the top 50, given their artist prominence / hype on Buzzjack at the time of release / actual quality rather than me having occasionally shit taste, etc.: 2. Los Campesinos! - Hold On Now, Youngster... 6. Gang Gang Dance - Eye Contact 14. Vampire Weekend - Contra 18. jj - jj n.2 19. Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest 21. Baths - Cerulean 22. f*** Buttons - Tarot Sport 23. Sufjan Stevens - The Age of Adz 27. Animal Collective - Sung Tongs 29. Sigur Rós - ( ) And here's what I voted for that made the top 50: 8. Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles 9. Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles [2010] 13. Active Child - You Are All I See 16. Arcade Fire - Funeral Nothing above #7 and nothing between #17 and #30! </3
October 23, 201212 yr Laura Marling three times? Florence? GARBAGE? Most of this list makes me feel a bit dizzy.
