Ewan Chaos Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Texas Sun! I know you'll have Mordechai higher, but glad to see Texas Sun also getting some love. After Laughter being top 20 YAAAAAAAAAS. Definitely my favorite album of 2017 and probably top 5 ever? And I wasn't even a huge Paramore fan before minus Ain't It Fun. Whew the way Hayley slapped me around and said YOU'RE DEPRESSED, NOW DANCE and I said YES MA'AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remmy Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Took a peek at some of the songs from a few of these EPs but nothing really jumped out at me. The artist that appealed to me the most was Mopac so good choice for your #1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunderland 4ever Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) Charlie's Top 100 LPs of 2020 | #140 - #121 Finally! It's time to start with this year's lists. Around 300 albums from 2020 were listened to (a few from 2019), out of which only 155 managed to get a score. I considered albums with at least 30 scrobbles (around 2 to 3 plays) throughout the year. How do I rate them? Each track gets a score from 1 to 10. Then the sum gets divided by the number of tracks and finally that number is multiplied by ten. Example: John Smith - The Original Album Track 1: 8 Track 2: 10 Track 3: 8 Track 4: 9 Track 5: 10 Track 6: 9 8+10+8+9+10+9 = (54/6)10 = 90/100 What does the final score mean? It goes like this: 71-75: Listenable, but not really replayable 76-80: Decent 81:85: Good 86-90: Very good 91-95: Outstanding 96-100 Masterpiece #140.

ikiru Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 After Hours is a great album! I thought the SoKo record was cute as well, but a bit forgettable. I've decided to check out songs from Yohuna (Mirroring) and The Bilinda Butchers (Night and Blur) because these cover arts were the most appealing to me. I really liked the Yohuna song, immediately saved it to my Spotify library! The Bilinda Butchers song was alright, didn't really enjoy it at first but the song got better towards the end. Great instrumentation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
