TBH the scale is not supposed to be taken as too accurate a rating, given that I only listen to the albums once. It's just a general idea of how impressed, or not, I am with the album on the first listen. If I were doing proper reviews of these albums the ratings would likely be much more representative of my view of each.
The numbers kind of don't matter that much. It's built, as you can see, on a speedometer, so the faster I go (as it were) the more I like the album and the slower the less I like it. Don't know if that makes any more sense?

That’s what I mean though; when the speedometer indicates a «Love» (if not a True Love), but the review expresses a plain ‘meh’ sentiment, it seems like you’re being too generous with your rating, something that I also think skews your end-of-month ratings towards the positive end of the spectrum. It’s no issue with me how you choose to rate these albums though, do whatever you fancy.
I’m enjoying reading these btw
