The best albums of 2013 (update November, 15)

The numbers presented next to each album title are the weighted average rating and the number of reviews (out of 29 included sources). The weighted average is based on a formula that includes a) the average of ratings and b) the number of sources that have rated the album.

New Entry or Re Entry

The magazines I used for the ratings were:
EUR: Gaffa-dk; Gaffa-sw; Jenesaispop; Laut; LesInrocks; MagicRPM*; Mondosonoro; Music-story; Nojesguiden; Plattentests; Playgroundmag; Sentire Ascoltare; Storia Della Musica
UK: Bowlegs; DIY; Drowned In Sound, The Guardian, Music OMH, NME, No Ripcord
USA: Allmusic; AV Club; BeatsPerMinute; Consequence Of Sound; Paste; Pitchforkmedia; Popmatters; Rolling Stone; Spin; Tinymixtapes

*Unfortunately, I have had to exclude MagicRPM ratings. The website has only this year posted 180 reviews. In addition, in recent months has decreased much the number of reviews and this distorts the result.

Out:

Yes, I always appreciate this list, but til now I never said "Thank You" for your effort. I rely heavily on your work when it comes to new purchases, so: Be sure of my deepest gratitude, not only twice a month.
Thank you very, very much!

Yes, music websites are very lazy.

I believe the year is over. No significant developments are expected.
