#187:


5 more of my top 100 artists fell in the last batch. The next batch will actually take out both my #1 and #100 artist - I will also plan to include a breakdown of their score to show what it takes to enter my top 100 while also showing how much of a gulf there is between #1 and #100. In fact, in raw points, even my #10 act is closer to my #201 act than to my #1.

Though as I said before, my 'top' artist and my 'favorite' would be different. What I would probably consider my favorite artist only has 4 albums, but the scoring system I use rewards longevity. So, again, take my artist ranking below as a vague approximation - quite a few of these would be rearranged if I ever tried to consciously rank my favorite acts, especially in favor of bands like Nirvana who only had a few releases. Heck, even just reducing the albums and songs I consider to just my top 500/1000 respectively would bump Nirvana up to #21...looking it over, that might actually be a more accurate list...
