The best albums of 2016 (update September 30)

The numbers presented next to each album title are the weighted average rating and the number of reviews (out of 30 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.

The magazines I used for the ratings were:
EUR + Australia: Gaffa-dk; Gaffa-sw; Humo; Indiestyle; Jenesaispop; Laut; LesInrocks; Mondosonoro; Musikexpress; Nojesguiden; Ondarock; Plattentests; Sentire Ascoltare; The Music
UK: DIY; Drowned In Sound; The Guardian; Music OMH; NME; The Line Of Best Fit; The Skinny; The 405
USA + Canada: Allmusic; AV Club; Consequence Of Sound; Exclaim!; Paste; Pitchfork; Popmatters; Rolling Stone; Spin; Tinymixtapes

Highlights: These are the top three songs from the album according to Allmusic, Consequence of Sound, Jenesaispop, Plattentests, Gaffa.dk, Gaffa.se, Beardfood, BostonGlobe, Nowtoronto, etc…

I was expecting a strong showing by the new Drive-By Truckers' album. Did they not receive the minimum number of votes required? Or is the album not as acclaimed as I thought it was?

Thanks again for all your work on this! I always look forward to it!

The Truckers' album wasn't released until the 30th, and unlike the Bon Iver and Jenny Hval albums (also released last Friday), there hadn't been many reviews posted prior to that. I would expect the Truckers, and Danny Brown as well, to debut very high on the October 15th update.

What a month September was; has completely changed the tenor of the whole year.

The answer is: The album has received less than 7 ratings.

The updated October 15: Drvie-by Truckers and Danny Brown possibly top 20.

It's pretty amazing that Nick Cave currently has the top album of the year. It will be interesting to see if when year end lists come around, if Skeleton Tree breaks the Nick Cave curse of moderate acclaimed albums, and lands him his (currently only) top 500, or if the album will perform worse on lists than in reviews (Which Cave tends to do.)
