Ants Album of the Decade Voting! 2010-2019 (Due Jan 1st)

Hey ants, as the 10-19 decade is wrapping up, we're going to start accepting votes for album of the decade!

1. Please order your lists with #1 being your favorite album of the decade. Please be sure to spell correctly and number your lists! This is a huge timesaver for me.

2. Please PM your lists to me.

3. Lists are capped at 100, with a minimum of 10.

4. Scoring will be the same as we've done for years past.
-#1 album will be worth 100 points for every list
- The #2 album will be worth 100 - (100/size of list) and so on...
- Example: A list with 100 albums will be (1. 100 points, 2. 99 points, 3. 98 points, etc...
- A list with 10 albums will be (1. 100 points, 2. 90 points, 3. 80 points, etc...)
- After calculating the total points, each album will be weighted as follows: Total Points * (Lists Appearing/2)

5. Let me know if you have any questions!

    I saved the old annual lists and turned them into RateYourMusic lists because the Blogspot addresses expire after 10 years

    I did not go looking for the 2000s AOTD one, though, and I'm gonna get on that because I'm sure it'll hit that expiration date soon

    Actually ...

    I cannot find the 2000s AOTD results in any of the threads Brendan started?

    I find him saying the results are coming well into 2010 and then I can't find a reveal:
    https://www.antsmarching.org/forum/s...272601&page=10
    https://www.antsmarching.org/forum/s...=275713&page=2

    Hmm!

    wondering how a Ryan Adams or Kanye West do compared to the 00s with their reputations sullied in recent times, MBDTF, Yeezus and Adams self-titled and Prisoner are all highly rated albums for me but it's a "separating art from artist" thing now in the era of getting cancelled for being a creep or weirdo

    This is a really good question. I'm still putting Prisoner in my list because it's a phenomenal album, but I can't say I've listened to it all the way through this year or how high I'll rank it (because of Ryan's baggage). I'm also putting Ruston Kelly's album in my list, though, because he's filled that void for me. And it's also a hell of an album.

    I'm going to say A Deeper Understanding takes it. Just throwing a dark horse out there.

    My guess is it’s a surprise. For someone like me....I didn’t listen to High Violet for years after its release. I think that type of nuance will follow for those albums that were well liked during their release as well as how other albums have grown on people over the years.
