I don't agree with #Fantano that the latest #Clipse album is an instant classic - and I absolutely love Clipse.

I think #theneedledrop has realised that the algorithm rewards picking one album per year to elevate above the others. I suppose being led by web traffic is a flaw for all reviewers to some extent but I still think a site like #sputnikmusic with user generated content will be less likely to be contaminated by the drive for clicks.

Last year it was BRAT that was chosen by Fantano. This year, Clipse. Next year we are guaranteed at least one.
