God, I love a list! Very much approve of August and Everything After. It might’ve made my list but I think I was at uni already when it came out. My 16 year old list is a bit of an approximation because it was a really long time ago. I know these are the albums I loved the most while I was still at school.
Recent (excluding WAS because what would be the point!)
