EOY 2015 - Magnet (USA)
Re: EOY 2015 - Magnet (USA)
3. Father John Misty - I Love You, Honeybear
2. Alabama Shakes - Sound & Color
I wouldn't expect to see To Pimp a Butterfly at #1 - this has never been a hip-hop-friendly publication. If I had to make a prediction, it would be this: their #1 will be a tie between the two Beach House albums. Neither has appeared yet in this top 25, and Magnet loves the band (Teen Dream was their #1 in 2010, and Bloom was #3 for 2012).

Re: EOY 2015 - Magnet (USA)
Well, now I feel like an idiot - I suddenly remembered that the magazine named Ex Hex's Rips the #1 album of 2014, and put the band on the cover of its year-end issue, and then I took a closer look at the cover of the 2015 year-end issue. Which I've been looking at on the website since Saturday. If you've seen the cover, it's not Beach House.
I suppose I won't spoil what album it is. It'll be on the spreadsheet update I'm posting soon, and it can go here as soon as it's officially up on the Magnet site.

Yes, apparently I've been doing the same thing as well haha. Oh well, at least it created some suspense.
