Guys, I'm sorry, I had hoped to be more organized about this, but I have a really killer sinus cold and I'm getting very, very dizzy. I think I need to slow the pace down a bit.

 

I'll post what I can of the lower numbers tonight as I get to them, and then I'll see if I can't try to put something special together for the top 30 or so tomorrow.

Ok, the tallies are in. There were a total of 278 eligible albums that received votes.

 

Some albums were not eligible:

 

Brains - Constant Love Forever - I couldn't find much about this album, but according to the band's own recent facebook postings they're still working on it for a 2011 release, and it may be EP length. If it leaked, the leak doesn't count.

 

Florrie - Introduction EP - EP

 

Local Natives - Gorilla Manor - 2009 UK release

 

The Avett Brothers - I and love and you - 2009

 

Nightspring-Datura - The album may have been misnamed- the only references I could find to it were from this forum and forum-related discussions. For all I can tell it doesn't exist.

 

Gorillaz - The Fall - The cutoff date was set at December 1st. This album is eligible next year.

 

 

:inquisitive: Teen Daze - Four More Years This is an EP. But it's a 8 - track album length EP from what I can find, so I'm reluctantly letting it count.

Hater :snobby:

 

Nah, the singer sent it to me and I was told it would be a 2010 release before i sent the list in. Obviously that didn't happen...

This album was done by a friend of mine from Utah. He didn't really have much of a following for the album but I quite enjoyed it. If you want I can send you a link to his site/myspace to show it's legit, though since I'm the only one that voted for it it won't make much of a difference to the final tally

Nope, but providing it ends up being album length, it will be eligible for this years list...it looks like they're planning to get it out soon...ish....

Sure, I'll take a look if you like... it would end up being tied with 6 other albums for 209th place if I put it back in.

^of course when I try and look on his myspace or FB page he doesn't have any links to get the album, I don't understand why. But you have to take my word for it being that I created music banners for his myspace that were animated saying the release date.

 

either way I guess it doesn't matter.

 

 

If you don't include it though will my next choices on the list though be bumped up to the next spot?

I kind of need some minimal proof of existence to count something - the whole idea is for others to be able to listen to things for themselves.

 

Uh, I traditionally bumped things up, but I'm using a different spreadsheet system this year that makes it complicated to impossible. Sorry. Spreadsheet fail. :disappointed:

not sure if this is enough evidence, but if you look on his twitter at the post for March 30th he states his album is released, though if you go to the website to buy it it doesn't show up.

if that isnt enough evidence don't worry about it. Like I said I'm probably the only person that voted for it so in the grand scheme of things it wouldn't make a difference
