As per title. For me, it's a case-by-case. Sometimes I will make a judgment after two listens as I know it will not grow on me; others, I'll make a note of a range e.g. 7.5-9 and give it a few listens until it settles. Anyone else have any kind of process? Very interested in how the guys with huge annual lists do it!

It usually takes me a couple of uninterrupted spins before deciding on a rating. Sometimes I'll have it on repeat before deciding, other times I'll wait later for the right mood/environment before deciding. I'll often go back in a day or two and have a re-listen to see if my opinion changes, and although it rarely does, there's the odd occasion where I find an album that doesn't quite sit right with me turn out to be pretty good. The rating system is valuable to me as I use it as a guideline to keep track on all albums I've listened to throughout the year.
