You're getting a 100 for having Passion and Warfare. That's all it takes to get my approval.

Normally I would not rate a chart with fewer than the full 100 entries, but this has some rarely seen and impressive albums whose merits I agree on. Laika and the Pointers’ ‘Stepping’ are the key examples here.
