Neek's Discogs Ranked
Here's all the bands I've listened to in completion (with 2 albums or more), ranked objectively by average score I've giving their studio albums. It was interesting to see how it stacked up with my personal opinions. Highlighted albums are my faves from that group/artist. Songs aren't totally definiteive, kinda picked them off the top of my head. Sputnik disagreements were the highest difference between our scores, if there wasn't a difference higher than .5 I didn't list it. |
