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:
Canadian slack rocker Mac DeMarco holds on to the #1 spot on College Radio for a second straight week. Four new albums debut in the Top 20, including “Shriek” the latest effort from the Baltimore, Maryland duo Wye Oak. Up 7 spots and making its debut at #15 is the first album in 16 years from The Afghan Whigs. “Do To The Beast” is the seventh studio album from the Greg Dulli (pictured) fronted band. The Afghan Whigs occupy the #1 spot on Spicy Radio this week.
