It's fun and representative to see the list in this 5 pages (very good lists) and the lack of appearance of Taylor Swift albums. Out of the histeria of the fan base (massive) the impact of Taylor Swift is minimum when we really start to speak about music. 

[Badlands]

1 Black Skinhead - Kanye

2 Ultralight Beam - Kanye

3 Thinking Bout You - Frank Ocean

4 Pink Rabbits - The National

5 Oh My Darling Dont Cry - RTJ

6 Low - Young Fathers

7 Drew Barrymore - Sza

8 Sprawl II - Arcade Fire

9 Uptown Funk  - Mark Ronson

10 Self Control - Frank Ocean

[Badlands]

Quite a decade! My listening habits shifted to listening mostly to albums alongside my Glastonbury and Jogging Playlist after previously neglecting long players for years.

Bump for this, another week to get your lists in. Will compile them next Monday and hopefully get them posted on Christmas Eve. So far I have lists from; @assorted, @lessthanwill1, @thrillhouse188, @Wooderson, @GrumpyRaver (albums only), @BlackZeppelin (albums only),  @jyoung (albums only), @a6l6e6x (albums only), @StevieGed (albums only), @JSmurphy, @hfuhruhurr (tracks only), @Toilet Duck.

If I missed anyone let me know (just a reminder that ´in now particular order´ aren´t counted unfortunately).

If it´s the case that we don´t have enough TOTD lists to compile a master list I´ll throw everything that´s been mentioned onto a spotify playlist and focus on the AOLD list.

for me - include the album I listed as my fave. Oh, and please, please remember to swap out George Ezra for PJ Harvey!!! Must have been a spotify glitch...

Already changed my mind in my head for the top ten tracks!!

I tried to think of the ones I got the most value from, even if I rarely listen to them anymore. Channel Orange and Yeezus are rarely played nowadays but they were staples for years.

I've basically loaded 30 albums into a notepad and I'm going through them (they're all fucking great to be fair) and yeah I'm trying to work out which ones deserve the top 10. It's hard though, the first Vaccines album isn't as good to me now as a lot of the albums I've put it my top 10 for this year but I was a fucking invincible 18 year old when it came out back in the day and it brings back that to a point. See where I get at the end of the week.

a top 10 track just seems impossible and I don't think I'll put myself through it. We'll see though.
