I think this list tries to be objective or something.

However, the music on here is so good and the comments written so well I can't help but be convinced Hairymarx is a music expert, and just go with it. Really a lovely chart.

Talk about know your onions! I don't feel qualified to pass judgement on this chart. Suffice to say, checking out the many albums I'm not familiar with is probably going to be worth my while.

Just like Scaruffi, HairyMarx has good taste. I may clash with them both on whether or not music must be forward thinking to be great, but I won't deny that I love everything on this chart.

Amazing criteria for a list. Especially given the results.
