Best Albums of 2017: Discussion Thread 2.0

[mookie]

I'll be sorting mine a bit today too.

[goodson]

shoutout sthubbins for having the most chill songs list

[iasm]

Different order, but I'm going to have the same top 3 as Mookie.

I'm going through the Sounds Better With Reverb album lists, and I may need to make some adjustments. There was a lot of great shoegaze this year that I missed.

[Xamnam]

More folks should check out the Kikagaku Moyo album.

Because more homework is what people need right now, I get it.


Edit: Other albums I'm not seeing on a ton of lists that people might dig: Heaters, Alex Lahey, Tangerines, Hazel English

I just put my list up. I'm not sold on the order but I'm pretty sure those are my 50.

If you'd told me half of those artists would be on my list I wouldn't believe you but here we are

We both put Open Mike Eagle at no. 4! Twinsies!

There's so much top 40 pop music on mine this year. Guess I'm lame again

can i get a quick ruling on Chris Stapleton's From a Room? i had them combined as one LP but some people have them listed as 2 separate entries.

i'll fix it however you prefer, @tima. just need to know.

The Yaeji EPs were combined due to a lot of publications doing so as well. I think it best to keep the Stapleton albums separated tho. Same goes for King Gizz, Moon Duo, and any other artist that released multiple albums in 2017.

Everyone:

I'd like to get a headstart on the tallying since I'm off tomorrow/today. If you've finalized your list, please "like/thumbs up" the first post in the list thread.

Hate to throw a wrench into your system, but since we're not doing an EPs list, if the ones you have need to be inserted into your top 50, please do so. Quite a few lists including EPs in their albums which I should have made a clarification on.


Even though they are two separate formats, lists should include albums and/or EPs if they want to. 

Sorry for not clarifying earlier.

nah it's fine, don't count my ep's. nbd

If, on the other hand, you're going to be working on your list until one minute before the deadline, like my post right here.

I was pretty wasted when I posted my list and forgot an album. Am I allowed to edit the list an add it now? Probably not right?
