Starting today we're rolling out the winners of the Gummy Awards, Stereogum & Videogum's annual readers' poll. Earlier this month we asked you to vote for 2013's best album, song, music video, new act, TV show, movie, and viral video. And you did! Thank you for listening! Best Album is the first category we're revealing the results for. The top ten LPs here also appeared throughout our own 50 Best Albums countdown. But if you felt our list was light on QOTSA, James Blake, and Death Grips, among others, you may like this list better. As promised, one lucky entrant has been randomly selected to win the top ten albums on this list on vinyl, courtesy of Insound — Will E., check your email.
