ILM's 2018 End of Year Tracks & Albums Poll / NOMINATIONS THREAD

Ok!

This year the EOY team is moka, forks and me; we'll be sticking to the rules and principles laid down by our saviour Johnny Fever in bygone times so you already know how it works.

- Nominations are hereby declared open until midnight PST on Friday January 4th.

- Everyone gets a max of 30 nominations, split as you see fit across tracks and albums. You can nominate 15 albums and 15 tracks, or 29 albums and 1 track, or 0 albums and 30 tracks - you get the idea.

- Please make sure it's obvious which nominations are tracks and which are albums.

- Always use the order "Artist - Track"/"Artist - Album", never put the artist second. It's hard enough to filter out duplicates as it is.

- Ctrl+F through the thread before nominating, or check the spreadsheets:

Tracks Nominations
Album Nominations

- No YouTube embeds in this thread! There will be a promotion thread when the time comes.

We should have playlists up and running soon, watch this space!
