Hi All,
Like last year I will be hosting the Annual ERA voting thread for album of the year. The previous voting thread can be found here and the results here.
As with before please read the rules and follow the guidelines which I have updated from last year so hopefully it will be easier to analyse.
Here are the Rules:
- Make sure the spelling is all good.
- Please don't use abbreviations or nicknames etc
- If there is no clear ranking I will not count it
- Albums must be released in 2018 so no reissues or greatest hits compilation. However in terms of grey areas such as Car Seat Headrests 'Twin Fantasy' I will make concessions.
- EPs are allowed.
- You can edit your list up to the deadline.
- You can include 10 Ranked choices and 5 honorable mentions. Anything past this will not get counted. If you list more than 5 honorable mentions I will only take the first five.
- Feel free to include less than 10 choices but you must vote for a minimum of at least 3 albums.
The Deadline is Sunday 3rd February 2019 at 23:59:59 PST for submissions.
Please use this format:
1. Artist: Album: Comment
2. Artist: Album: Comment
3. Artist: Album: Comment
HM. Artist - Album: Comment
Please be consistent as the simpler everyone makes it the quicker I can get the results out. I will aim to have the results page up within a week of the deadline.
Comments are optional but encouraged, especially for your first place choices. Feel free to also use album art and other relevant images.
Point System is:
1st = 10 Points
2nd = 9 Points
3rd = 8 Points
4th = 7 Points
5th = 6 Points
6th = 5 Points
7th = 4 Points
8th = 3 Points
9th = 2 Points
10th = 1 Point
HM (Honorable Mention) = Half Point
If you would like to listen to more new music before the deadline I would recommend AlbumoftheYears aggregate list of critics results for 2018.
I look forward to seeing everyones votes and then being very stressed trying to collate them.
Edit: Hi all, since the responses have been coming in slower than last year I'm going to push back the deadline to 12th Feb. I'd be grateful if a mod can update the title accordingly.
