The albums are not ranked when they have the same amount of points.
I think everything below 50 points is not really to be taken serious, because a new vote could make the album suddenly rise 30 places.



155 | 44 - Grimes - Visions -
159 | 43 - M.I.A. - MAYA -
163 | 41 - Grimes - Art Angels -
164 | 41 - M.I.A. - Kala -

Yeah, in hindsight, MAYA is probably more to ATRL's taste, should've voted for it. The way Grimes fell off, Visions is an important album to me and would ideally be in my top 10, but this is what happens when an artist keeps acting like a fool.

me asf (well I forgot to send my list but if I had it would've been 90% khias bc it's what I listen to the most :grill:

 

btw I had already sent my "20 finalists that I didn't send bc I forgot to rank them" but I also had a longer list so I might send that later for the lolz of comparing with atrl's top 100

Posted

Just read through all the pages and this has been so much fun :rofl:

 

Can't believe Red ended up higher than 1989 :deadbanana4:

 

It's funny how the list only really became reasonable in the top 50 or even top 25 :mandown:

 

Will post my ballot later (cause I forgot to save it) :gaycat3:

 

I feel like that if we ever were to do this again, maybe we should revise the point system? The first 50 or so of this list were so weird at times and I feel like it's because of the amount of points albums got based on their positions on the ballots. Just one member ranking an album at #1 gave it 25 points, which means if 20 members all put another album at #20, the album that was chosen ONCE would be higher than an album making TWENTY lists. I feel like an album even making so many lists should weigh heavier than just one or two random people putting an album up so high. Maybe #1 should get 200 (or 250) points, #2 195 points, #3 190 points, and so on, meaning #20 would get 100 points. This would give more weight to an album being on a ballot rather than being really high on a ballot. Really wonder how much different the results would've been and which way would be a 'truer' represantation of our taste :cm:

 

Anyway, @Zaram, thanka for hosting!! And let's all appreciate the work that was put into the visuals of each reveal... quite a lot of work :clap3:

"later" me when I lie:

bold = albums that made it

Spoiler

my shortlisted 20 (still unranked bc why would I bother atp lol):
(#03) Norman ******* Rockwell! 🇺🇸 Lana Del Rey (in hindsight, I should've included other Lana albums but at the time it seemed everyone would be payola'ing this one so I forgot about BTD, its top 10 place was deserved af tho)
how i'm feeling now 🇬🇧 Charli XCX (I've only heard this + Sucker + Brat from her in full i think? I haven't gotten to the rest yet)
That's the Spirit 🇬🇧 Bring Me The Horizon (I actually haven't heard this in full either I think but I love the singles so)
Cry Baby (Deluxe Edition) 🇺🇸 Melanie Martinez
(#64) Electra Heart (Deluxe) 🇬🇧 MARINA
Dystopia : The Tree of Language 🇰🇷 Dreamcatcher
MAYA 🇬🇧 M.I.A.
MATANGI 🇬🇧 M.I.A.
Adieu les monstres 🇫🇷 KALIKA
Let Her Burn 🇺🇸 Rebecca Black
Sztuka płakania 🇵🇱 Marta Bijan
Care 🇺🇸 TEMPOREX
Miljards vasaru 🇱🇻 Sudden Lights
OKO 🇺🇸 Lena Fayre
Nadie lo va a hacer por mí 🇪🇸 Rakky Ripper
Shrines X 🇨🇦 Purity Ring (or the original, alternatively)
another eternity 🇨🇦 Purity Ring
Super Over (It's Really Really Really Over Edition) 🇺🇸 Leah Kate
Am I a Girl? 🇺🇸 Poppy
Flux 🇺🇸 Poppy


other albums/eps I considered but had to remove from the list (because it's only top 20), in no particular order:

Cum Cake 🇺🇸 cupcakKe (I had this on my list until I remembered abt M.I.A. xD)

HAPPYCORELUXXX 🇺🇸 MISS LUXURY (I also had this on my list until I rememebred abt M.I.A., I rec. her music if you like Ayesha Erotica-like stuff, or this record in specific if you want Charli-like sound but more raunchy)
Ephorize 🇺🇸 cupcakKe

WOMB 🇨🇦 Purity Ring

HOLY **** 🇺🇸 Demi Lovato

világvége 🇭🇺 ajsa luna (saved hungarian music iktr)

Raid of Dream 🇰🇷 Dreamcatcher (is it obvious they were my ults when I was into kpop? lol)

Circus 🇺🇸 Britney Spears

(#16) Ultraviolence (Deluxe) 🇺🇸 Lana Del Rey

Bowling 🇺🇸 TEMPOREX

I disagree (more) 🇺🇸 Poppy

Fairyforest : Temptation 🇰🇷 PIXY (the lead singles are bangers imo)

Melancholia 🇵🇱 Marta Bijan

No Meu Canto 🇵🇹 Elisa (cute indie EP #1)

Demoni 🇸🇮 Joker Out

Stained Glass Love 🇦🇺 Telenova (cute indie EP #2)

K-12 🇺🇸 Melanie Martinez

Neptune Diamond 🇪🇸 Rakky Ripper

POST HUMAN: SURVIVAL HORROR 🇬🇧 Bring Me The Horizon (I'm not sure I heard this in full either but the singles I heard are bangers so)

Pang 🇺🇸 Caroline Polachek

? 🇮🇹 cecilia (cute indie EP #3)

(#108) The Family Jewels 🇬🇧 MARINA

Lucky Star EP 🇺🇸 Faerybabyy (cute indie EP #4)

Hot City 🇺🇸 Bonnie McKee

 

i also thought of these but didn't consider them seriously (bc i thought they wouldn't make the top 100 or because idr well what they're like):
(#08) Blackout 🇺🇸 Britney Spears

(#24) Teenage Dream 🇺🇸 Katy Perry (Last time I listened was almost a decade ago but it's still iconic)

**** Pop 🇩🇪/🇺🇸 Kim Petras (100x better than **** pop miami IMHO)

X Games 🇩🇪/🇦🇬 Au/Ra

soundtrack to an existential crisis 🇩🇪/🇦🇬 Au/Ra

Pinkprint 🇹🇹/🇺🇸 Nicki Minaj (Same as Teenage Dream)

(#81) PRISM 🇺🇸 Katy Perry (Last time I listened was like a decade ago but I remember I liked it so idrk)

NOCTURNAL HOURS - EP 🇦🇺 ASHWARYA (cute indie EP #5)

for those wondering about my choice of albums for some MPGs, i know people might say "X album is better than [insert the one I chose]" but I can't vote for stuff I haven't listened yet so- (for most MPGs, I haven't listened to any of their stuff post-2016 bc I was busy being sucked into the kpop hole and when I got out I got into more niche music+Eurovision stuff rather than returning to MPGs, with the exception of Lana & Britney whose music I got into in the past years (&MARINA+Charli but are they MPGs?))

 

edit: I just realized I completely forgot abt ari, riri and avril when making my list lol, ig I used to listen them around 2012-2016 but not much after then so I forgor :skull:

Also I forgot abt "Broke With Expensive Taste" if I didn't I would've def considered it xD (also Dua, I guess I just forgot this was ATRL and just started picking stuff I had listened to in the past 3-4 years lol)

 

edit2: I have no clue why the flag emojis copied as images

Edited by Illyboy
forgot to actually compare w the final atrl's list oops lol

My predictions for the top-10 based on ATRL's taste:

 

Blackout

Born This Way

Red

Renaissance

Ray of Light

Melodrama

Emotion

Anti

Norman ******* Rockwell

Butterfly

 

Token male album (if one makes it in the top-10): After Hours or FS/LS

 

:suburban:

the way you actually got most of these right though (only anti and Emotion weren't in top 20 iirc?)

Posted

Wasn't able to join the past few days (obviously) but the albums from 50-1 weren't AS bad as I thought but lord some LAUGHABLE picks I will say. Thanks so much for putting all this together!!

Oh Motomami the people will never truly give you the flowers you deserve. Don't think anyone has ever managed to combine centuries of culture with contemporary sounds and ideas making it all sound fresh with next level production all while still respecting the original sound and making it appealing to audiences of all ages and singing in the original language that is not English. This truly is the best album of all time and it will be studied for centuries to come...

Wasn't able to participate live but what a fun read! RoL was my #2 and is a super deserving #1 :heart:

The way every Gaga album reveal had the girlies pressed... They simply can't take her TABS  :coffee:

Thank you @Zaram I'm sorry certain members let you down with their... choices

My main grievance with this list is that... Y'all need to listen to some Pop albums before the year 2000.

 

The fact that damn near some artists whole discogs is on the list is crazy to me. :rip:

i think this is a much better criticism of the list than that we didn't have all the famous classic albums in it.

 

a lot of it i put down to demographics cos these are obviously the albums that people have grown up with, but not even seeing "whitney" or stuff like that makes me wonder how much the way that pop records were only really starting to be taken seriously at all in the 00s affects some people's idea of what a classic album is and whether those 80s/90s records have been talked about enough in that context (tho ofc there are plenty of albums in here that were roundly panned so idk about that).

 

ftr i threw in abba, pet shop boys and elton john and it was a complete waste of time lol. these were mine (* means another album by this artist in the top 100)

 

Spoiler

1. Laura Nyro - Eli and the 13th confession (#182)

2. Kendrick Lamar - Mr Morale and the big steppers*

3. Taylor swift - 1989 (#25)

4. Sly And The Family Stone - there's a riot going on

5. Lana Del Rey - Norman ******* Rockwell (#3)

6. Fleetwood Mac - Rumours (#31)

7. Abba - Voulez vous

8. Wu Tang Clan - Enter the Wu Tang

9. Ariana Grande - Dangerous Woman (#79)

10. Kate Bush - the Dreaming (#78)

11. Doja Cat - Scarlet

12. Magdalena Bay - Mercurial World

13. Weyes Blood - Titanic Rising (#122)

14. Halsey - Manic (#157)

15. LCD Soundsystem - This is Happening

16. Pet Shop Boys - Introspective

17. Charli XCX - Charli*

18. Elton John - Madman Across The Water

19. The Killers - Hot Fuss

20. Madonna - Like A Virgin*

a lot of people have slagged off the back half of the list and while i am not going to claim that all of these are the "best" records or all time, i think there are some interesting things in there. one of the good things about doing a rate is that it frees you from what people are supposed to like and you find out (to some degree) what they really enjoy listening to.

 

while on one level that means that we've found that a few people think that "rare" is one of the best records ever made and quite a lot of people think that "ARTPOP" is, there's also room to look at something like "broke with expensive taste", which is a great album that's fallen out of fashion because *gestures generally twds azealia banks*. stuff like "the dreaming" and "erotica" (which i know was higher but that's interesting in itself) are unfashionable albums by big artists that are clearly being listened to now by an audience who don't care that they were slagged off 30 years ago or whenever it was. 

 

some things feel very high to me (find someone who looks at you like this forum looks at folklore and evermore ffs) but i think that the forum effects are a good thing in general, it's nice to see artists like marina and tinashe exactly because they wouldn't fly outside pop forums. and tbh i've listened to "revivial" this week and it should have been higher: full of bangers, iconic sleeve

Thanks to everyone who participated, especially to the host for working on this. :clap3:
 

I will give these albums a try. Is ROL really that good? Guess I'm about to find out. 
 

Also so happy for Renaissance getting its flowers. It's indeed Beyonce's best album and one of the best of all time. :clap3:

I'm talking even earlier than the 80s/90s. For a site that loves Lana, I'm surprised trad pop makes zero noise on here. Julie London has one of the earliest "classic pop albums". It's been in the grammy hall of fame for over 20 years. It smashed on the charts (for its time), etc,. Judy Garland just got the pitchfork 10 (very rare for a woman at that) for a classic live Pop album and there wasn't even a thread on here from what I've seen. The 80s is at least cherished in a somewhat "greatest hits" fashion, the 90s less so. City Pop similarly doesn't make much noise on here. Tapestry feels like a fluke :rip:

 

Before the 2000s only the top 0.5% of women in pop are actually considered and going back before the 80s is a stretch.
