I'm currently working out what order for mine to go in. Some will be expected, and others may come slightly as a surprise. I'll do prelim write ups too, as the summer will be pretty busy with recording work, so I'll probably write them in advance in any spare time and then C+P them.
This is as exciting as superluminal neutrinos. The sexy thing is that this actually exists :D

Cool, and I've heard nothing from dethklok so I've moved him down in brackets and PMed zook and kirksnosehair to see if either of them are ready to go.

I've been procrastinating this list o' mine, because it's damn hard. I thought I was close to finishing it, but I might start over again. TAC says his list will be boring, but mine might be more boring-ererer.

So yeah, move me down the list a bit.

Think I got my 50 finalized, just have to make sure I don't listen to any new music between now and when my turn comes up.

Hhhmmm... between the speed at which some people are going (Barry is like The Flash!), and the rate at which people are no-showing, you might be up in a month or so.

I'm sure you'll find something between now and then you'll want to add to the list   :biggrin:

Nothing I've come across in the last couple days at least. :P

I have found two new ones in the last month or two, so it does scare me.

We both need to do the same thing.  Stop discovering, and just focus on all the great stuff we've found recently!

Hey guys, I finally started (seriously) ranking my albums! It only took 7 months.

Can my name be added to the list please?

This, but having just finished being a student, and with a summer of bass playing ahead, I think I'll be too skint to pick much up for a while (luckily).

My thing is writing for Nem's zine, I'm getting new stuff all the time. In fact, three albums on my list are ones I've found in the last six months.

Boobs are a perfect representation of the universe.  They are circles within circles.  What is the single most common shape in the universe?  Circles.  When I look at boobs, I think of the big bang.

Thanks for the build up guys. No pressure then...

Looking at what I've got so far it's pretty predictable. Ish.

And I keep finding other albums to add.

Honestly, there is no reason to not do it as quickly as KNH is doing it.  Considering the wait list, it is rather rude to take forever to do it once you are up to bat. If you don't have the time to bust it out, then take a skip and let someone else go.  Obviously, this is serious business. :lol :lol
