Albums League.
 
It's similar to my Video Games League basically but with Music Albums.

And like with the Video Games one, I will update my Albums League once I've listened to a considerable amount of Albums to warrant the update.

And obviously anyone that wants to do their own Albums list is more than welcome to do so.

Here's my rankings in order:

1. Ella Langley - Hungover
2. Semblant - Lunar Manifesto
3. Semblant - Obscura
4. Japan - Gentlemen Take Polaroids
5. Japan - Tin Drum
6. Muse - Showbiz
7. David Kushner - The Dichotomy
8. Arch Enemy - Will To Power
9. Vertical Horizon - Everything You Want
10. Aiden Grimshaw - Misty Eye
11. Take That - Beautiful World
12. Daniel Bedingfield - Gotta Get Thru This
13. Matt Cardle - Letters
14. Alabama Shakes - Sound & Color
15. Kim Deal - Nobody Loves You More

Tbf to all of the Albums that I've listened to so far (even Kim Deal's Album) I think that they've all had merit to them personally, I would say that Kim Deal's Album is the only one that I personally couldn't take to, but I still appreciate the talent that she's bringing to the table.

I really enjoyed my top 10, in particular I don't think that there is a dud song on Ella Langley's Album imo, but obviously some people will see it differently to me.

And I hope that you all have a good day.:dance:

Kate! 15-12-2024 10:29 AM

Nice idea for a thread

May I enquire why you have included an album you ‘couldn’t take to’ in your top 15 list ??

It's because it was one of the last 15 Albums that I've listened to.

It's why it's on there, it will most likely be lower once I start adding more Albums to the list.:laugh:

I think you'll like it...might take a couple of listens. Not one bad song on it imo.

Sure, I'm open to suggestions.:)

And I'm especially up for Sigur Rós.:dance:

Mystic Mock 06-01-2025 05:07 AM

And good lists btw guys.

I myself need to start checking more older Music Albums out, as I do like some of the artists singles from the 70's & 80's.

Mystic Mock 12-02-2025 09:49 AM

Before I do my update, I just want to say that I am not hating on any of these artists on a personal level if I've placed them low on my list, I am judging mainly on my own perception of song quality, vocals, lyrical content, and just that little something extra that only so few Albums can deliver imo.

And obviously I know that these artists have worked hard on their material... I hope.

Anyway here's my updated list for anyone that's interested.

In order.

Albums League:
1. Ella Langley - Hungover
2. Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory (New Entry)
3. Semblant - Vermilion Eclipse
4. Semblant - Lunar Manifesto
5. Semblant - Obscura
6. Evanescence - Fallen
7. Three Days Grace - Three Days Grace (New Entry)
8. Monoral - Turbulence
9. Ryan Star - 11:59 (New Entry)
10. Japan - Gentlemen Take Polaroids
11. Japan - Tin Drum
12. Muse - Showbiz
13. Biffy Clyro - Only Revolutions (New Entry)
14. Chayce Beckham - Bad For Me
15. Sirenia - The 13th Floor
16. David Kushner - The Dichotomy
17. Arch Enemy - Will To Power
18. Kacey Musgraves - Same Trailer Different Park (New Entry)
19. Muse - Origin Of Symmetry (New Entry)
20. Metalite - Biomechanicals (New Entry)
21. 50 Cent - The Massacre
22. Vertical Horizon - Everything You Want
23. Aiden Grimshaw - Misty Eye
24. Imogen Heap - Speak For Yourself (New Entry)
25. Take That - Beautiful World
26. Sick Puppies - Dressed Up As Life
27. Coldplay - Parachutes
28. Bullet For My Valentine - The Poison
29. Radiohead - Ok Computer (New Entry)
30. Daniel Bedingfield - Gotta Get Thru This
31. A-Ha - Hunting High And Low (New Entry)
32. Matt Cardle - Letters
33. Pvris - White Noise (New Entry)
34. Alabama Shakes - Sound & Color
35. Sigur Rós - Takk...
36. Arctic Monkeys - AM
37. The Handsome Family - Singing Bones
38. Him - Love Metal (New Entry)
39. Kim Deal - Nobody Loves You More
40. Olivia Rodrigo - Guts
41. Linkin Park - From Zero
42. Father John Misty - Mahashmashana (New Entry)
43. Kokia - Songbird (New Entry)
44. Wet Wet Wet - Popped In Souled Out (New Entry)
45. SZA - SOS
46. Röyksopp - Melody A.M. (New Entry)
47. The Weeknd - Dawn FM (New Entry)
48. Beyonce - Cowboy Carter (New Entry)
49. Circle Takes The Square - As The Roots Undo (New Entry)
50. Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp A Butterfly (New Entry)
51. Sabrina Carpenter - Short n' Sweet

I'll be honest and say that 50-47 really started giving Sabrina Carpenter a good run for her money at finishing below her, just not my kind of songs on those Albums.:laugh:

Tbf though I get that other people will like them, they're just not for me.

I really like a lot of the Albums on this list though, especially Albums 1-24, there's something special about those particular Albums for me personally.

Benjamin 13-02-2025 08:27 AM

Couple more suggestions for you

* Finley Quay - Much More Than Much Love
* Ludovico Einaudi - In A Time Lapse (not sure how you feel about piano albums)
* Neko Case - Fox Confessor Brings the Flood

bots 13-02-2025 03:42 PM

If you want to try something a bit challenging, you could try Pawn Hearts by Van der graf generator. It's a stunning album

Kate! 13-02-2025 03:53 PM

I'm pleased to see Arctic Monkeys on that list.

Ammi 14-02-2025 06:25 AM

…is this a recommend an album…?…Choke Enough by Oklou is a pretty stunning listen…:love:…

Mystic Mock 17-02-2025 05:01 AM

Thanks for the suggestions guys (the more the merrier I say.)

And @Benjamin I'm open to trying out a Piano styled Album.

At least I think so anyway.:laugh:

If you’re going to start with a piano album, Ludovico is the guy. You’ve probably already heard some of his stuff without realising it in TV/adverts/radio. My suggestion though listen when you’re in a chilled mindset.

I'll take that onboard, thanks.

And I probably have heard some of his stuff without realizing it, I remember doing that with Imagine Dragons when they first came out.:laugh:

Yay, you listened to Ludo :clap1:
