Yet again our lists have crossed.

You and @hobbers are basically having an e-swordfight. I mean, "sword" fight. I mean dicks, not swords. And not fight.

Echo Mountain High - L.B.D.A.
Wisdom - Stick Figure
Good Times - Fortunate Youth

 

[Wing Attack Plan R]

@Dirty Schwein I reordered my list trying to game this contest.

I'll change I changed it to Mother of Pearl Moon, if you're including it, so we can get them through to the next round!

I already posted mine, but in truth I might as well have picked that as most of the others, so okay - would be great if they went through!

 

[justsomebloke]

1. Ants From Up There (Black Country, New Road)
2. Did you know that there's a Tunnel under Ocean Blvd (Lana del Rey)
3. The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We (Mitski) Mother-of-Pearl Moon (And Also The Trees)
4. Something in the Room She Moves (Julia Holter)
5. Only God Was Above Us (Vampire Weekend)

Don’t hate the player, hate the game.

I lobby for votes, which isn't the same as these scoundrels aligning lists. Lobbying is hard graft.

 

[Hoof the ball]

How in God's name is Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On", or Stevie's "Songs in the Key of Life" not present?

I had that in mine so I'm good, go after the rest though.

Here’s the problem: three of us could think record X is the 3rd best album of the decade, but one person could think album Y is the best album — and their album goes through while the more popular choice does not. It’s why ranked voting exists. It’s why the Academy Awards are horseshit. It’s why Britney shaved her head. It’s why we can’t have nice things.

How in God's name is Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On", or Stevie's "Songs in the Key of Life" not present?

Exactly. I voted both of those. Redcafe Brexit crew fecked up.

I would have had WGO if I had remembered to vote in the 70s round. Magnificent album.

By way of embarassedly mumbled explanation, it's for a good cause. This is without doubt the most unfairly overlooked band ever. It'll set the universe right if they go through.

[Superunknown]

I've really liked this decade, so far. Really tough to just choose 5 and then order those. I'm going for...

1. RTJ4 - Run The Jewels
2. As The Love Continues - Mogwai
3. I Don't Live Here Anymore - The War on Drugs
4. Everything Is Alive - Slowdive
5. In Times New Roman - Queens of the Stone Age

Very, very honourable mentions go to:

Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher
Kendrick Lamar - Mr Morale & The Big Steppers
Wolf Alice - Blue Weekend
Japanese Breakfast - Jubilee
Mono - Pilgrimage of the Soul
Chvrches - Screen Violence
Kavinsky - Reborn
Chemical Brothers - For That Beautiful Feeling

I had to get my wife to help me narrow this down as I was really unsure. Feel bad leaving out Phoebe Bridgers, Wolf Alice, and Japanese Breakfast. That Kavinsky album was amazing, too.
