Before Nov 2020, grades range from 5 to 3.5 stars. After that, grade range is: 10 (A+), 9.5 (high A), 9 (A), 8.5 (high A-), 8 (A-), 7.5 (high B+), 7 (B+). Ungraded albums are honorable mention :-), neutral :-|, negative :-(. At least 3 listens per posted album. Search "Grade Post" for more info. I shelved/sold 10,000-12,000 albums after at least 3 listens before starting this blog and will add entries for those as they come up. If you don't see an album, it doesn't mean I don't know it.

Fontaines D.C. - Skinty Fia: 8.5 (high A-)
Christgau thinks this is their "dullest" album. I think it's their best, and not dull. I do, however, think he's become quite dull himself.
