Just a quick update: I'm currently adding the familiarity level (first listen ... several listens ... very familiar) to the signatures. Currently for all the albums which you marked as "first listen" will result in the rating rendered without background color. I'm planning to add a vertical bar though, to make it more intuitive.

BTW: You can quickly enter the familiarity level for all the albums you rated on this page (link works when you're logged in at PF):

Not really. There have been many exciting releases this year, so why not start voting as you're listening to these albums? By the end of the year you'll automatically have the definitive chart, if you keep submitting ratings for every album of 2009 you're listening to. It's really just a few clicks ... Smile

Simply rate them as you're listening to them, and you'll be added to the chart automatically. Smile

^ I'm glad you like it - the small steps definitely come in handy when you have a lot of stuff in the 8-9 area but still want to control the order in which the albums are listed.

^ didn't you just rate an album? If you mean that you don't want to tag things (assign genres, progressiveness etc) then that's fine with me. But I'd be glad if you assigned main genre and progressiveness at least for the lesser known artists, because that will put them on the map for other people.

Welcome Slartibartfast and MrEdifus! Smile

Wait. I rated stuff, you tricked me. Tongue

On a serious note I do like all the degrees you put in to your rating scale, actually makes rating a little easier.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Not 100 per cent on topic, but I see you really enjoyed the latest Lamb Of God album Mike, so I'll give a go.
