This is arguably my favorite chart on the site, plus 27 bands in common never hurts.

I've heard the Montage album of course, it should probably be on the chart. As for Honeybus I've never actually listened to an entire album of theirs, just some songs here and there. Gonna get on that, thanks for reminding me!

I don't think I've seen a more unique chart. Not gonna lie, there are a lot of albums from here that I haven't heard, but it's interesting to see the few albums that we share in common. I honestly don't think I've come across a more well-balanced chart. You cover all the decades and most genres, even though you do totally give heavy metal the shaft. Oh well, we can't all be perfect ;)
