Is this why the front page still says next update coming sometime in 2019 because it will continue on a community driven basis?

Re: Site update is here
A pair of albums fell out of the top 500 that would be very strong ModAcc contenders if somebody nominated them: "Lift Yr Skinny Fists" and "The ArchAndroid." The former has been outside of the top 500 before, but I can't personally recall it ever being nominated (but someone pl...

Re: EOY 2015 - Rolling Stone (USA)
I believe not all 80s are created equal. I think this is due to some sites/sources being looser with their ratings. At some sites 80 is an average score whereas others 80 is higher than normal so they compare average scores between sources and curve it accordingly.

Appropriately Julia Holter did have 5/5 and so did Sleater-Kinney. Courtney Barnett who charted EOY h...
