4. Bury Me At Makeout Creek

Good list. I first thought Makeout Creek might be too low but her discography has just become that strong by now.

I think OGWAU should be #3 by now. Also, I don't understand why FotB > Contra.
Fine with OGWAU at 3. I saw Contra and FotB as pretty close in popularity and acclaim, I'm curious how you'd compare them.

Nevermind. They are very close. I may have thought given its higher certifications in the UK, Australia and Canada, plus its much better RYM user rating that Contra should be given the edge. Then again, FotB is minimally higher on AM (as of 2020, mind you), has a minimally better Metascore and, perhaps most significantly, had much stronger singles. I'd probably still give Contra the edge but it's by no means decisive. Should an Acclaimed Music update come this year, I'd say the higher of the two there should also be the higher one here. But I wouldn't wait for that to happen.
