2. (=) | Soundtracks For The Blind | Swans | |||||||||||||||||||
| Some albums are like being hit in the chest with a sledgehammer. This album is like being crushed by a mountain. Post-rock albums often give a sense of vast empty space and natural beauty. This album smothers you in scalding, acrid feculence until your sinuses congest and your lungs fill with blistering putrescence. (Helpless Child) | |||||||||||||||||||||

4. (=) | Illinois | Sufjan Stevens | |||||||||||||||||||
| Sufjan is a masterful storyteller with extraordinary ambition. This is an album of love, grief, despair and exaltation; and each of these in no small measure. (The Tallest Man, The Broadest Shoulders) | |||||||||||||||||||||

15. (=) | Remain in Light | Talking Heads | |||||||||||||||||||
| This album masterfully combines and reinvents genres, weaves intricate and engaging rhythmic syncopations, and is a rich lesson in musical history; yet these qualities are just a footnote to its glorious danceable grooves and brilliant hooks. Existential crisis never felt so good. (Seen And Not Seen) | |||||||||||||||||||||

I must be missing something about Deerhoof, I remember seeing them a few years ago as a support act and honestly thought they were a joke, ruined by an absolutely terrible front women but I like the rest of your chart so much that I'm going to give them another chance

an_outlawAnd it was you bumping Storm Corrosion so high up the 2012 chart that got me listening to it! ;) I was working away through top 100 of 2012 on the website last year and eventually came across the album. I got it on the strength of the first track! Have you seen the music video to that one? Beautiful beautiful work of art the video is!

Fantastic assessment of In the Court of the Crimson King. I don't think it could be done better in such a concise manner.
