Album Ratings for 2013

Another year; another list of album’s I either managed to review or ones I intended to, going so far to score them but never getting there. I ran into two albums that ranked a nine (a first!) but album of the year goes to Sigur Rós with Queens of the Stone Age in a close second.

So enjoy this long list of titles and numbers and have an awesome start to 2014.
