Album Rating: 4.0

seriously though, if we all agree that nostalgia is a factor in older albums having higher averages, and Loveless came out twenty years ago, that's an additional 0.1 for every 4 years, so if you do the math, 20 divided by 4 = 5, and 5 x 0.1 = 0.5. And 4.5 - 0.5 = 4, so they essentially have the same average if you adjust for time passed since release, and also Teen Dream has way better vocals

how does one assign a numerical value to the nostalgia factor

Album Rating: 4.5

It’s 0.1 obviously

Album Rating: 4.5

oh yeah, how did I not consider that

Album Rating: 4.0

lol if it were just 0.1 that would just be an arbitrary number, it's 0.1 per 4 years, it has to be measured as a rate and not just an individual number

Album Rating: 4.5

i reject all of your premises

Haven’t even heard Beach House yet, but Loveless won’t be topped

Album Rating: 5.0

I probably listen to twenty albums a week that are better than Loveless.

I have a tendency to exaggerate, maybe an album that’s better than Loveless, on twenty occasions? Twenty separate albums is admittedly quite the stretch.
