Here is your 2016 AMF Chart playlist of all songs on the chart so far this year:


Thank you all for voting and nominating continuously every week! Please don't be afraid to supply us with nominations - all songs six months old and younger (or who have received promotion via album/video/single in the last six months) are accepted! And seconding nominations by others gives those songs a better chance at making the next poll!

As per usual, the next poll will be created as close to Sunday at 19:00 UTC as I can make it. Best of voting! :D

Seconded

Also just heard this on the radio. Not had time to fully evaluate yet. It's a bit weird in a Kate Bush sort of way but certainly grabs you.

This chart is further proof on how I don't understand how I'm the biggest fan of "Burn the Witch".

The songs in this chart, while good, aren't as strong as Radiohead's back catalogue perhaps.
