Here they are. The 111 Best Albums of 2011 as voted on by you my readers. If you don't like the results...then vote for something better next year.
I personally, always like the results of this list much better than most critic lists. This list is always more honest to me. While Adele dominated most lists...she only cracks the top 40 here. Or the Decemberists who barely made it on many critic lists jumped up high here because the people just liked the album.
