Special Note: for those of you just joining, these are the results of the community voting with 20 albums and 5 honorable mentions. The votes were not weighted rather counted for duplicates. Everyone got to pick 20 releases from 2010-2019.
Introduction: Thank you one and all for voting and caring so much about putting forth your opinion. This was a lot and I could not do it without the help of the Fleshbot 50K. Before I share the results, and if you are still reading this you didn't just run to the list, it is important to realize this is the result of people on this sub voting. The results are going to be a Shreddit vote and reflect the tastes and opinions of Shreddit. You can use this list to find albums you may have missed or form opinions on what others find valuable. If you feel your album was robbed or that something shouldnt be as high up on the charts AND you didn't vote, then please throw your comments below and we will talk.
