Discussion: This Was 2007 Rate | (Obvious) Winner Revealed!

madonnas

The gods have blessed ATRL with a new rate, where we take six of the many hugely critically acclaimed albums from 2007, and we rate them. All you have to do is listen to each and every song, rate it from a scale of 0 (bad) to 10 (good), and send those scores in a PM to me. For now, the deadline is the 8th of December. I understand this is a busy time for many students so I am willing to extend the deadline if need be. Six albums can be a lot, so I suggest tackling one album at a time.

Without further Ado, here are the albums.

of Montreal, Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?

M.I.A. - Kala

Arcade Fire - Neon Bible

Radiohead - In Rainbows

LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver

Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - Raising Sand

I'll attempt to do this. But my own countdown and 3 other rates and real life take priority for the moment.

That's 67 songs, not that much. That's like 4 a day!

My TW2005 had 75. Listening to 67 is relatively easy.

Raising Sand will probably be the The Woods/Vecktamist of this rate, Arcade Fire will probably be Sufjan.

You best be nice to LCD Soundsystem his masterpiece.

In my humble opinion:
Hissing Fauna > Kala > Sound of Silver > In Rainbows > Neon Bible > Raising Sand
