Last night, I decided to bump For Emma, Forever Ago up to a 5 after
months of it sitting at 4.5. The list is other albums that are close to
5/5 territory. | | 1 |  | Bon Iver
For Emma, Forever Ago
There's no point in me justifying a 5 for this. It's been done several times
before. | | 2 |  | Damien Rice
O
This album single-handedly convinced me that singer-songwriter albums are
worth my time. | | 3 | | Godspeed You! Black Emeror
F# A# (Infinity)
The apocalypse never sounded so awesome. | | 4 |  | Manchester Orchestra
Mean Everything to Nothing
I so badly want 2009 to produce a classic album for me. This is my
favourite album of this year, but it's not quite a classic. | | 5 |  | Protest the Hero
Kezia
I took me a while to realize that this is significantly more interesting than
Fortress. | | 6 |  | The Decemberists
The Crane Wife
I don't know what to say about this album other than it owns my face
whenever I listen to it. | | 7 |  | Animal Collective
Merriweather Post Pavilion
I think this is the first album (or of the first few) that I bought based off of
praise from this site. If I'd gotten a mediocre album that this site was going
apeshit for, I would have probably questioned the collective musical integrity of the site and peaced out. Lucky for you guys, I stuck around! | |

11.08.09 | 100% agree with comments on 5 and 6 | theacademy
11.08.09 | 5 :) | ninjuice
11.08.09 | I support anyone rating Kezia as classic.
METN is awesome but not a 5. | theacademy
11.08.09 | i like how before you listen to it, you might pronounce it "kez-ee-ah" | Prophet178
11.08.09 | 3 is absolutely a 5. | Skimaskcheck
11.08.09 | 1 and 3 are definitely 5's for me, i agree with 2 and 4 being borderline | TMobotron
11.08.09 | I would have gotten the fuck out of here if I had done what you did for 7. Haha cool list though. | MrCalum
11.08.09 | 1 and 3 are a 5
4 I'm not sure about, i prefer like a virgin more which I've been debating wether to bump to a 5
7 is awesome, but I dunno if its a 5 | Ewednesday
11.08.09 | 2 is such a great record, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, yet, like you It doesnt feel like a 5. | Geist
11.08.09 | Is 7 really that up there? I listened to snippets a few months ago and was unimpressed, but listened to their earlier stuff and really enjoyed it.
3, though. Motherfucking 3.
GYBE rock. | Aids
11.09.09 | The people on this site seem to either love Merriweather or hate it. I happen to love it.
There's something about FA Infinity keeping it from a 5 for me, I can't quite put my finger on it. Lift Your Skinny Fists is superior (I feel) and most definitely a 5. | Baphomet
11.09.09 | 5 is indeed a classic.
7 is also damm near the 5 star rating. |
