Input:
10 years
20 decade lists
749 bands
973 albums

Output:
200 top albums from 2010-2019


FAQ

How are the points calculated?
Simple math.

Ranked top lists:
1st place = 150 pts.
2nd place = 149 pts.
...
100th place = 51 pts.
...
150th place = 1 pt.

Alphabetically sorted lists:
Each place = 100 pts.

Why just a Top 200?
Because 200 list entries are more than enough.

Is it by pure coincidence that the first four positions are occupied by bands with the initial letter "E"?
Yes.

Will your list be updated on a regular basis?
No.

Why is my favorite power metal abum not featured?
I don't know. Let's ask the list owners:

Thanks, but your creative influence on this list was far greater than my contribution. I'm just juggling with figures.

By the way, your personal top spot Sutcliffe Jugend - Blue Rabbit has landed on the 284th place.
Just in case you're wondering...

This is amazing

Well, without your little bit of aid both Sylosis albums wouldn't be here, that's true.
But it takes at least two strong supporters to make the cut and in this particular case each album received ranking points due to their presence in several users lists, so their positions are well-deserved.

By the way, 46 of your favorites of the decade are featured in this list, that's a whopping 30%.
Not too bad for someone who seems to neither like Esoteric nor Emptiness.

Nothing But The Whole narrowly missed the cut actually; Esoteric wasn't in consideration but I do like those albums.

And I spotted a lot of albums from my list on here, 30% seems about right

I somehow bumped onto this great list again, and just realized that I forgot to include Indesinence's - Vessels Of Light And Decay in mine. Shocking omission on my part.
