Elliseamos, do you want this styled as Album Title - Artist Name, vice versa, or does it not matter? I guess I can always go with italics or quote marks to distinguish which is which.

Would that I were around RM during the album's release. I had a great time with it upon that first round of listens.

I know for a fact you got Lightning Bolt this year. Where is it?

washing machine · Post by **washing machine** » Thu January 02, 2014 6:12 pm

Lightning Bolt, along with a Shinyribs record called Gulf Coast Museum, didn't make the list. I purchased them but didn't play them enough to rank them.
