Hey guys. :hello:

I propose a neat thing: we make an official ILF Best of 2015 list.

All you gotta do is PM me your Top 10 albums of the year 2015, let's say, by December 21st...?

If you want, you can include little writeups for some or all of the albums, up to you.

From there, I'll tally up the results, and format a new OP with the list, in order of popularity, with album covers, writeups, etc.

I've done this before on major P2P sites like Oink (RIP) and Waffles.

What say you?! I think it could be, uh, neato burrito.

Plus its existence would probably make D.o.S. all premenstrual and that just makes me happy. :p

----------

Criteria for albums:

Must be or released between January 1st, 2015, and December 31st, 2015.

CAN BE: an album, an EP, a single that is not also on an album, a compilation by various artists, a collaboration, a split, etc.
CAN'T BE: a reissue, a retrospective, a single that is also on an album

You can pick albums for any reason. If you think it's a masterpiece of unprecedented emotional resonance, go for it. If you picked it because Pitchfork picked it, go for it. If you know that it's a piece of shit but you enjoy singing along to it on the way to work, go for it! If you just think that you like when the guitar go boom boom, go for it. You don't owe anyone an explanation.

----------

Okay! Go for it!

Alternatively, we could make a list of all the times you were unintentionally racist on ILF in 2015. :idk:

We could! But don't let that interfere with this list.

The lists can coexist, Portland man. Godspeed.

Nope, just the Top 10 in no particular order.

You don't even need to include all 10.

I'm kinda over making year end lists. My perspective on music changes as I listen to it over time, I never ever ever hear all the music I like from a particular year for it to seem like it matters, and my constant rediscovery of older music keeps me from checking everything out. I kinda dislike year end lists in general because depending on the source it can be more like a popularity checklist than anything else. & it snubs musicians who release music in December, because even if their music is awesome not many people will be able to appreciate it in a timely manner, and more than often they just aren't included. & ranking music is a whole other conceptual cluster fuck i'm fine with leaving behind.


TL;DR blah blah blah Ill just check out the Be(a)st thread.

While I appreciate the sentiment behind the OP, kbit pretty much summed up my issues. Esp. this part:

even if I still use terms like 'the best' or 'the worst' in application to music stuff
