Tom's Ballot for the 2018 Village Voice Pazz & Jop Critics Poll
Well this was a surprise. Despite announcing that they were shutting down their website (paper version died years ago), in late December, someone who was still doing archive work for the Village Voice decided to take on another year of the legendary Pazz & Jop Critics Poll.
I've been voting in this since the early 00's.
