Nick · Post by **Nick** » Sun Feb 09, 2014 10:22 pm

Hello everyone, and welcome to the results of the "Top Albums of 2013" poll! Thanks to everyone for viewing/commenting on the songs poll thread, and congratulations to Daft Punk for taking home the "top song of the year" honors! In this poll we will get to find out who's taking home the "top album of the year" honors. First off, I would like to thank all of the voters who contributed lists. Here they are, all 41 of them...

Here are a couple notes about the presentation. First off, the "Fans" section is for people who placed an album in their top ten, or if nobody placed that particular album in their top ten, it is the person who gave the album its highest ranking. Second off, the "Critic's Ranking" section is the album's ranking on the EOY 2013 spreadsheet that Harold has meticulously compiled. And finally, I don't really have a set schedule as to when I will post updates, but you should expect at least two a day.

Kingoftonga · Post by **Kingoftonga** » Mon Feb 10, 2014 10:54 pm

I tried to listen to at least an album a week or so during 2013, yet I'm amazed at how many I still have to catch up on. I suppose having too many albums to listen to is better than having the opposite problem.

Dream River really fell flat for me, especially when compared with what I thought was the far superior Apocalypse that preceded it. The music on Dream River just felt like it had far less of an emotional range, and all the songs ended up blending together for me. I was surprised it got such better reviews.

Thanks for catching that! It was actually Matski who put "Run the Jewels" at number 5. You and Matski, in addition to having similar names, are right next to each other on my spreadsheet. I'll fix that. The ranking/number of points/number of votes for "Run the Jewels" doesn't change. Thanks again!

And to think I almost made it without any errors!

I actually didn't vote for "Acid Rap." I checked the thread where we posted our lists and Jeff (who probably would've been next to me on the spreadsheet) did have it at #3, so this shouldn't affect the results. Thanks again, Nick!

So far only 1 of my top ten has been revealed

Harold · Post by **Harold** » Tue Feb 11, 2014 6:48 pm

Well, 8 of the top 10 should be pretty obvious, and if so it's amazing how closely this forum's tastes aligned with the critics' this year.

I'm guessing that the other two are by very different female singer-songwriters, and if I'm correct I couldn't be more thrilled by the British one making the top ten. (If I'm wrong, I'll be stunned at her missing the top 50!)

There are a few climbers.

Jirin · Post by **Jirin** » Tue Feb 11, 2014 9:02 pm

The thing about lists that use an open ballot system is they heavily favor albums that the most people have listened to. And because people who voted in this poll are likely to be users of acclaimedmusic.net, they're far more likely to have listened to the ones praised by the critics. This exaggerates the amount people are actually agreeing with the critics.

If you notice the list of albums that did much better than their critic ranking, most of them were nominated for BMAA2013. They did better on the list because people listened to them for the game who wouldn't have otherwise.

It'd be interesting to see how the results changed if we used a system where not listening to an album != not liking it.

Jirin · Post by **Jirin** » Wed Feb 12, 2014 2:34 pm

Pleasantly surprised to see Yeezus no higher than #6. Pretty good list near the top but I think Vampire Weekend capitalized on previous success just a bit. One trend for critic rankings is that it's much easier to get critical praise if you have previously released critically praised albums. (Of course it goes both ways, you also get criticized much more if your album isn't at least good).

If you think forum tastes aligns too much with critic tastes, the first thing you should do is go out and listen to a lot of albums critics aren't raving about.

First off, sorry I didn't vote. Although my list probably wouldn't have had any impact at all on the rankings.

I kind of disagree with Jirin's comment, although I might be biased because MVotC would have been my #1 album too. While it's true that the success of VW's first two albums obviously assured that their third would have a near-automatic critical advantage right off the bat, I think the album is very much a progression, and very much their best work. Speaking for myself, I enjoyed and admired the first two, but this one was different - I loved it, absolutely loved it, from the first listen, and every subsequent listen has only reinforced and deepened that reaction.

Gillingham · Post by **Gillingham** » Wed Feb 12, 2014 3:17 pm

Thanks a lot Nick!

Just like Jirin, I'm glad West didn't make the top five somewhat surprisingly, although that's still really high.

Another observation: the first six albums are all by artists that already enjoyed a huge reputation as a successful artist. And that's, arguably, true for at least 8 of our top 10 and also for the number 11 tot 13. Only after that we can see some newcomers emerge.

Mindrocker · Post by **Mindrocker** » Wed Feb 12, 2014 3:45 pm

I have been wondering how many of those albums would be selected if voters were hypothetically asked to vote with consideration as to whether they also thought the albums chosen would rank as the 1st or 2nd best release amongst their respective artist's oeuvre (or maybe amongst top three/five albums if the artist has a large back-catalogue)

EDIT: I have to admit a few of my choices would not have been rated as high up if I had considered voting that way.

PlasticRam · Post by **PlasticRam** » Wed Feb 12, 2014 6:18 pm

I honestly think Yeezus > MBDTF, RAM > Homework > Discovery, MVOTC > their other stuff.

Obv Funeral can't be topped though. And I mean I understand someone might think MBDTF can't be topped, but in my opinion Kanye did the impossible. I don't want to start an argument though.

Edit: That being said I didn't like The National, Arctic Monkeys or m b v, while each of their best work I very much like.

Yeah, but everybody listens to the critically praised albums, whereas everyone goes deeper than the surface of the list in a different direction (And some not at all). The conversation tends to center around the critically praised options, and I'm just saying that if we want lists that differ more from critic lists we need to create more conversation around more diverse albums.

RAM and MVOTC feel like 'Maturation' albums to me, where the bands become less unique writers but better performers. Kind of like Sky Blue Sky.

I understand (and agree on) the "why" of the list similarities; my intent was to point out that Harold's original observation (about how we are very in line with "the critics") is not necessarily one that is met with universal enthusiasm. Yes, I am trying to promote more adventurous listening excursions. Your MA competition is right in line with this goal.

jamieW · Post by **jamieW** » Wed Feb 12, 2014 11:15 pm

I noticed that I wasn't counted as a fan for "Random Access Memories." (I had it at #2 on my list.) The good news for Vampire Weekend fans is that, even if my vote wasn't counted, it still wouldn't be enough to topple them from the top. The bad news for me is that Vampire Weekend is one of those artists, try as I might, I just don't seem to be able to get.

Thanks for the presentation, Nick! I really look forward to these end of the year forum polls. There are still a few albums that made the list that I haven't heard, so I have something to look forward to this weekend.

MBV over Kanye was a nice surprise. VW is a predictable winner, though I certainly thought DP had a chance after dominating the songs poll.

Great job, Nick. I was wondering--could you post more extensive lists beyond the top 50 for songs/albums? I'm curious where some others that I voted for placed.

Great job, Nick. I was wondering--could you post more extensive lists beyond the top 50 for songs/albums? I'm curious where some others that I voted for placed.

I agree with all that kudos go to Nick and with Jackson that it would be interesting to see more extensive lists if it's not too much trouble.

Sure thing! I'm quite a bit busy today, but I will be able to post both more extensive lists and the individual lists within the upcoming days. Sorry for any delay!
