I’ve been playing about with creating new feeds this week.

The last 16 albums at the quarter final stage.
It’s Pixies and Doolittle for my top spot out of these 4.
I keep putting the Smiths albums 4th even though I do like them, I’m just not a huge fan of the studio albums and the competition is strong.

It’s again the Cure for my top spot, and Disintegration is my favourite from all 16 so hoping/expecting to reach the final 4 but you never know, a lot of competition from popular bands.
