Total recency bias but Punisher felt like an all timer from the first time i heard it. It probably helped that it came out the day i finished my family medicine residency/the day my wife and I finally got a puppy (who we of course named Phoebe)

i vote for an extension of a week since a) it’s so close, b) i’m at the beach and c) tomorrows my birthday and i’m not posting the thread lol
my thoughts on how to proceed, though, since next week is the last one is as follows: 62 year winners the two most recent ties (there were ties in the beginning but it was when we had like four people voting in these) get seeds 63 and 64 i’ll probably post four threads on monday and four on thursday for the first two rounds or so, so that this doesn’t take 6 months to finish lol where have you been @cshadows2887, cast your vote
that sounds great, i feel like the highest non winning point totals would put better albums in the bracket most likely, but can't argue with the 2 that came closest to winning and didn't
1. Boldy James & Sterling Toles - Manger on McNichols 2. Ben Seretan - Youth Pastoral 3. Taylor Swift - Folklore HM: weave - the sound II Waxahatchee - Saint Cloud Hot Mulligan - You'll Be Fine The Goalie’s Anxiety at the Penalty Kick - Ways of Hearing The Chicks - Gaslighter Photographic Memory - S/T 1975 - Notes Rod Wave - Pray 4 Love Dogleg - Melee Bendrix Littleton - Deep Dark South Ruston Kelly - Shape and Destroy Cartalk - Pass Like Pollen
1. Tame Impala - The Slow Rush 2. Glass Animals - Dreamland 3. Dua Lipa - Future Nostalgia Tame album not getting much love here
These are one of the best albums in 2020 Jehnny Beth, 'To Love Is to Live' Caribou, 'Suddenly' Neil Young, 'Homegrown' Chloe x Halle, 'Ungodly Hour' Frances Quinlan, 'Likewise'
thanks for the patience with the long week. taylor swift's folklore wins with 37. phoebe bridgers' punisher had 33 and dua lipa's future nostalgia had 25. final yearly thread going up shortly and then we go into the bracket
