The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead
Not really my genre but I like it, especially some of the earlier songs - would probably listen to it again. 7/10

x ambassadors - vhs 2.0
haven't listened to this album for ages so it's nice to listen to it again
renegades - sometimes it's the popular songs that are crap but i like this one
very listenable!!
low life 2.0 - quite good
naked - one of my favourites from this album!! lyrically and musically it's brilliant. the saxophone is also just adding something beautiful to the song.
kerosene dreams - great song, i really like the soundscape of this
low life - i think i like this version slightly more
unsteady - lyrically not groundbreaking but sam's vocals are
nervous - decent lyrically, liked the music on this
collide - i love the big and brash sound on this
eye of the storm - the beginning of this is a bit similar to collide, but still a great song
fear - the music around 1:58 i especially liked. their collaboration w imagine dragons was very good, i hope we get another song between them in the future
b.i.g - so so fun to listen to!!
hang on - can't beat a bit of motivational lyrics. think the music's really good in this one!!
gorgeous (live) - beautiful
forgot to type my opinions of the next few songs but...
i basically like all the songs on here
7/10 because it is a bit long!! but a very enjoyable album. favourites are gorgeous, loveless and naked.

The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead 
The Queen Is Dead - Sounds all right, as long as you don't pay attention to the actual lyrics. Dragged on too long for my tastes, as well.
Frankly, Mr. Shankly - A bit better.
I Know It's Over - Nah, still quite a bit to go yet...
Never Had No One Ever - Don't know why, but his voice just grates on me. Karaoke version would probably be highly enjoyable.
Cemetry Gates - Very odd, but I actually liked it!
Bigmouth Strikes Again - Epic.
The Boy with the Thorn in His Side - Think he's growing on me.
Vicar in a Tutu - Very good. Ended rather abruptly, though.
There Is a Light That Never Goes Out - Started weakly, but I liked it by the end.
Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others - This is true. And also a boring song / topic to end on.
5/10, B side was stronger.

I actually was a bit disappointed in this album on re listen. It has some absolute classics but I prefer some of the other work they did together. 7/10

I think it's time for a Evil Homer pick! This again is one of my favourite albums of all time, hopefully people don't find it too bleak or boring though!

Also, did I miss out on posting an album yesterday? Should I set an album up tomorrow to make up for it?
White Lies - To Lose My Life...
I really like some of these, more towards the beginning but Farewell to the Fairground was also good. 7/10

White Lies - To Lose My Life
Death - I'm surprised this didn't do more for me TBH, sounds similar to bands / songs that I do like, but something seemed missing.
To Lose My Life - This one grew on me.
A Place to Hide - Didn't hold my attention.
Fifty on Our Foreheads - Odd.
Unfinished Business - Still don't know what it is about their music that isn't clicking with me, but this was better.
E.S.T. - Best so far.
From the Stars - Passable.
Farewell to the Fairground - Okay.
Nothing to Give - Decent. ...followed by 2 minutes of silence. I assumed I'd be getting a hidden track or something, but I think it was just a weird Youtube upload. 
The Price of Love - Bizarre.
4/10. And I don't know why. Instrumentals sound great. Vocals sound good. Lyrics are a bit weird, but the dark themes appeal to me. I want to like it, but something about the combination just isn't doing it for me.

Has my terrible album choice killed this thread?
White Lies - To Lose My Life
One of my fav albums of all time, although it can be a little bit of struggle if you're not in the mood as all the songs can sound a little similar and there isn't much of a change of tone throughout. Death is one of my favorite ever tracks and I love the deep vocals throughout.
9/10

I can't speak for the others, but the only thing that will stop my posting activity here are the days with no album choices at all.

I don't know anything about this album whatsoever. Let's go.
Bleachers - Gone Now
Dreams of Mickey Mantle - started out meh but then became alright
Goodmorning - ehhh not bad.
Hate That You Know Me - kind of forgot about it
Don't Take the Money - ehhhh feel like I've heard this song on a few of the other albums
Everybody Lost Somebody - nice saxophones I guess. Bit ambitious with the falsetto hehe
All My Heroes - they had a good song and then they ruined it with all these sound effects that just don't go with it. You know when you accidentally start a song in another tab while you're listening to one? I was looking for that tab.
Let's Get Married - meh
Goodbye - nope
I Miss Those Days - ehhhh
Nothing is U - bit better
I'm Ready to Move On - it's... alright
Foreign Girls - have I heard this before...?
err 4/10. Second half of the album wasn't good.

Also The Black Keys - El Camino, from a post yesterday.
Loving the stats BTW, the details such as standard deviations on the divisive ones are fun to know.
