Top 40 out of the 92 I listened to in October. pm me for the total list.
I create an album calendar every month and listen to the albums on it based on the days the covers are on. This is my October 2014 album list rating chart.
Albums included are the top 40 albums I listened to as dictated by my 92 album calendar I made for the month of October. I put a lot of work into this chart as I will with every months chart. If you liked the idea, agreed with some of my ratings or notes, or if you just appreciate hard work, rate this chart up and share the link. Let people know! If you disagree with my ratings, tell me why! Heart emoji, smiley face!

Musically impressive and outstanding overall. The intensity of this album alongside The Wizard of Oz makes this album a huge piece of musical phenomenon. Favorite track: Speak To Me/Breathe. [First added to this chart: 11/03/2014]

I was separated from civilization whilst listening to this album, and felt comfortable laughing out loud to many of the songs. I found a few to be particularly easy to relate to as I am a hopeless romantic, eg. Tired of Sex, Across the Sea, and Pink Triangle. Favorite track: Pink Triangle.

The Flobots are a hugely talented group and they get far too little recognition. Handlebars fit much better into the album than out of context but it is a beautiful piece lyrically and trumpetwise. The album told a story and I was blown away by the last song. Favorite track: Rise. [First added to this chart: 11/03/2014]

Out of all the OutKast albums I heard in October, Aquemini was definitely the best followed by ATLiens. Aquemini Gives you insight into the lives of the members and their talent shines through almost immediately. Favorite track: Return of the G. [First added to this chart: 11/03/2014]
