The 2007 Idolator Pop Critics Poll has been posted and you can view the top 10 albums, as voted upon by critics and writers from around the world, below. Once again the fine folks from Idolator invited EAR FARM to take part, and we did. Below you'll find the lists of top albums of 2007 that Mike and I submitted for Idolator's poll as well as links to our individual poll pages within the Idolator site. Click through to those to find out how we voted for top track, artist, and reissue of 2007. And yes, these lists are different from what was posted in EAR FARM's Top 15 Albums Of 2007 and just might offer some insight into how EAR FARM's top album list came about.
