So lazy lol

I haven't seen a whole lot of lists with Two Hands over U.F.O.F., so this is surprising. They're both excellent albums, however. Also happy that Bandana made the top ten

What happened to Spin? Last year they did a top 51 albums list. Now it's down to 10.

Probably got rid of most of the staff or something, wonder if it will still be around this time next year.
