Space Cadet Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Drumroll please, :drummer:It's time for the annual Albums of the Year Poll 5th Anniversary Edition :toff: :dance: The idea:Make a ranked list of your 5 to 25 top original studio albums released this year. There will be a countdown of Coldplaying's favorite new albums after the deadline. The deadline: Thursday, December 30th at 8:00pm EST The rules: ~ Original studio albums only, please. No EPs, live albums, reissues, or compilation albums. Soundtracks must be primarily original material. For example the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World soundtrack is not eligible, but the Scott Pilgrim original score is. ~ A list must have at least 5 albums to count. You may list up to 25 albums. Lists must be ranked by the deadline. ~ Albums must have been originally released between December 1st 2009 and December 1st 2010. The original release date is the first official release date in the US or UK, whichever is first. International-only releases go by the first official release date worldwide. ~ You may edit your list at any time up to the deadline. Post your tentative lists here and I will post a link to it in the second post. The list I link to will be the list I count, so make sure you edit your original list or let me know if you post a new one. ~ Digital-only releases are welcome. If an album has a split 2009-digital and 2010-physical release date, the physical release is eligible this year ONLY IF the digital release did not receive any votes in the 2009 poll. Unofficial leaks do not count. ~ Please number your albums and write the artist name before the album name. For example, #1. Radiohead - In Rainbows (This will save eons of time and will help you find out the results much sooner. Thanks.) ~ You cannot vote for In Rainbows. Resources and Links:Previous Albums of the Year Polls Wikipedia's Albums released in 2010 ALWAYS double-check release dates. Countdown Thread 2010 It's been a very good year, methinks. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMagpie Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Here is my official list for Coldplaying. It is a little different than my usual list since I put it more in order of how I want to get those album points. For example I loved Hannah Georgas' album, but nobody else will have it in their lists, so I took it out and instead would like a band like Foals get those points if that makes sense.

the_gloaming09 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 There were so many good albums this year. I think that my top 4 is going to look something like this (of course it might change, but at this point I'm pretty positive that those 4 will stay in that position... that is unless an amazing album gets released before the end of the year.... possibly LP8 ;) [wishful thinking :P] 1. The Suburbs-Arcade Fire 2. Teen Dream-Beach House 3. Forgiveness Rock Record-Broken Social Scene 4. High Violet-The National Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violet Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 WHAAA? You legitimately bought ALL of those? :surprised: That's impressive. Also, "Ocean Eyes" is a 2009 album. It was the deluxe edition that was released in late January of this year. Technically, that shouldn't count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cadet Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 ^^You know you're going to have to figure out how to pick 25 of those... :uhoh: For the rest of us who aren't rich and don't want to download, I would highly recommend Grooveshark, an ad-supported streaming site. http://listen.grooveshark.com/ Also, albums are often posted on websites and myspace pages in their entirety.

tauiwi Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 WHAAA? You legitimately bought ALL of those? :surprised: That's impressive. Yeah, I spend too much on CDs lol. I'm not rich, I just believe in valuing the work of good artists. Also, "Ocean Eyes" is a 2009 album. It was the deluxe edition that was released in late January of this year. Technically, that shouldn't count. RAGE. :veryangry2: It was too. Crap, I didn't put in my 2009 list. This upsets me. I usually do a top 50 so I can have a top 25 easy! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cadet Posted September 30, 2010 Author Share Posted September 30, 2010 Karkwa - Les Chemins de Verre Arcade Fire - The Suburbs Vampire Weekend - Contra Lcd Soundsystem - This Is Happening Gorillaz - Plastic Beach The Black Keys - Brothers Klaxons - Surfing the Void Apparatjik - We Are Here MIA - /\/\/\Y/\ Loreena McKennit - The Wind that Shakes the Barley Broken Social Scene - Forgiveness Rock Record Stars - Five Ghosts Tokyo Police Club - Champ Beach House - Teen Dream Interpol - s/t Extra special past the cutoff shoutout to the Tron Legacy Soundtrack by Daft Punk Hmm... interesting year for me. On one hand I got the chance to buy and love almost every album on that list. What it meant though, was that I was listening to 5 or 10 favourite new albums over and over again, rather than listening to new things, so the time never materialized to make the list longer. I haven't even listened to Stars' album more than once, and I own it. :thinking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
