Ito 2438 Posted July 16, 2014 I figure since 2014 is more than halfway done, I should post my 2013 list! XDI have been sitting on this list for a while and I was figuring I would never post it since it is so late and this point, but hey, what the hell...here it is anyways.I originally was going to write up a little something for each album, but if I did that, I just would never find the time to actually finish this (and was a huge reason I never got it up in January).This list will be separated in to 4 tiers. Think of it as this: Tier 4 - Stuff that took me by surprise or was pretty solid. Good music but not necessarily something that stuck with me for that long after listen to it. These albums might also suffer from having some great songs but then also a lot of filler Tier 3 - These are albums that I really enjoyed but still lacked the spark to take them further up the list. These usually felt more complete albums than in tier 4 but could still end up feeling a bit same-y as a whole. Also, I usually ended up spinning these albums more that those in tier 4. Tier 2 - The great stuff of 2013. These albums don't have a heck of a lot of faults and I listened to them a lot. One of the key factors to making it this high up on the list is being very memorable. Tier 1 - The closest albums to perfection...the stuff that I played over and over and over and when I talk about them I just gush about how amazing they are. Essentially I have a hard on for these albums. 1 CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
