There's so much dad rock - that's the bulk of my one stars too. But even worse is the 2nd/3rd generation dad rock from the 80s-00s, the stuff that just derivative and ripping off the original boring dad rock, but because dad rock guys' taste is so slow to evolve they think that's the most interesting stuff from the era...

The term ‘dad rock’ is nebulous, because I don’t think there is a consensus on what it means. Are The Beatles dad rock? Neil Young? Red Hot Chili Peppers? I mostly associate it with safe, radiofriendly MOR 70s guitar bands like the Eagles, but I’m pretty sure it gets attached to all kinds of guitar music from the 60s ...

Their debut is their best for me. Mark Knopfler is one of my favourite guitarists ever, he’s unbelievably talented, has great tone, and technical ability. And there’s just a lot of great songs on that record: down to the waterline, six blade knife, Wild West end, and of course sultans of swing

Nice to see another britpop fan :) And Peter Gabriel's Melt is a really great album. I only had So far but I gave it a 5. I don't like Bruce Springsteen either, but disagree with The Smith's Queen is Dead which is imo a fantastic album. Why don't you like this album?

The first 4 Peter Gabriel albums have been considered essential listening for me for years. The Smiths I find far too sad-boi and jangly for my tastes. I hated Morrissey's voice even before I knew he was an absolute POS of a human being, and now it's just impossible to separate that from his music.

Solid 3/5 for me. It's a good album but quite scattered and lyrically doesn't really take me anywhere until the last track. I don't think the years have been kind to it and it sounds dated to my ears. I'm sure it would have been amazing to hear it when it came out, but my time machine is broken.

Obviously I get the general idea, artists that you consistently give high ratings to will end up being classed as a "favourite artist." But I'm more interested in the technicalities of how an artist becomes a "favourite." So far, I have received 3 albums by Arcade Fire, in this order; The Suburbs (4/5), Funeral (5/5),...

I'm not positive, but I think you have to have at least 3 albums rated by a band for them to make your favorite artists. I have a few that I've given one 4 and one 5 to that aren't in my favorites. Just The Beatles and Radiohead, who each got one 5 and two 4s.

The person that runs the site made a post the other day that he tweaked the best/worst algorithm, and indicated that number of albums rated per artist has an impact.

If 2 albums: they must both be 5.  If more: a Bayesian average is calculated and applied, meaning an artist with lower mean could end up higher if it has a lot of ratings.  This was changed last week. Previously I just used the mean.  https://www.algolia.com/doc/guides/managing-results/must-do/custom-ranking/how-...

I’m not gonna lie, it was tougher to get to 200 than it was to get to 100. I don’t know if this was due to the albums being weaker, me being more critical, or me having to go back to a LOT of “Did Not Listen” records. In any case, I’m getting back into the groove of this project and am very excited to continue!
