After you give a score, four short prompts help you write the review. The answers become paragraphs in the text, with no canned sentence. It works on the album page, on CriticsFM, and in Album Club.

August 30, 2026

2 changesNew Three-step signup with Last.fm
Signup now has three steps: name and username, primary chart, and genres. In the second step you authorize Last.fm and choose whether the chart updates on its own, with a 7 or 30 day window. Settings let you authorize, switch, or disconnect later.
New Charts that update on Saturday
Your weekly primary chart can update on its own every Saturday from what you listened to on Last.fm. If you already published this week's edition, it is not replaced.

New Releases hub

August 2, 2026
6 changesNew Library
You can save a song, album, artist, chart, or review, and see them all in your Library. The save button appears on those pages. The screen shows how each item reached you when that origin was recorded.
New Levels and achievements
Each profile now has a level, a progress bar, and a set of achievements by family, such as published charts, reviews, and network. See yours on the profile achievements page. Only the primary chart counts.
New Compare profiles
When you are signed in, you can compare your taste with someone else's on that profile's compare page. Affinity comes from overlap in songs, artists, albums, library, and games, and each number shows the count behind it.
New Explore charts
The /explorar page groups this week's charts by what can be counted: how old the releases are, how often one artist repeats, and presence on the Global 100. Each card states the count that put it there. When you are signed in, a group of charts similar to yours also appears.
New Stats, history, and discoveries
Profiles now have dedicated stats and history pages. Stats show artist, genre, and date concentration, with the method in view. History puts charts, reviews, comments, and follows on a timeline. Discoveries suggest artists, albums, and charts from people you follow.
New Search results page
Pressing Enter in search opens a full results page, with albums, artists, songs, written reviews, communities, and people. Type tabs work as links.
