    Cheers dude for doing this, and apologies for the delay. I 100% blame my crap job for stealing my time and will to be productive.

    Annoyed that Four Tet isn't up there, it is still the album of the year for me.

    Hey thanks for posting this.

    Glad to see Fionn Regan get a mention. I thought his album was a bit overlooked and underexposed compared to Villagers. But superior IMO.

    Surprised there was no mention of The Tallest Man On Earth, given how much was written about him in this forum.

    TBH that album gets old very quickly. Far from his best effort.
