Here’s the weekly Top 20 College Radio Albums from the Radio 200 list published by CMJ (College Media Journal). The reputable rag surveys up to 600 college radio stations of a weekly basis to compute the list.
In addition, here’s my Spicy Six Albums of the week. These are the six albums that can’t find their way out of my six disc changer. The list consists of my Top 5 Albums of the week, and one Heritage Album that’s worth dusting off and giving a listen.
Here’s the lists:
Two weeks in a row at the top spot on College Radio for Real Estate. Four new albums debut in the Top 20, including the latest from Cloud Nothings. Dylan Baldi and Co. jump up 82 spots to #5. Also new to the countdown is DJ DEEp’s new favorite band Future Islands (pictured), the Samuel T. Herring fronted band come in at #16, as well as hold down the top spot on Spicy Radio with their latest album “Singles.”
