BackLog for Rate Your Music

About

Do you find it difficult to remember every album you want to listen to while browsing Rate Your Music? Are you tired of your bookmarks being clogged with Rate Your Music links? Well, here's a solution.

If you are an avid user of Rate Your Music, you have certainly run into the issue of managing your backlog. Managing and tracking your backlog can be overwhelming and time consuming, and Rate Your Music lacks a way to easily categorize music you would like to eventually listen to. BackLog is here to solve this issue.

BackLog will allow you to store the albums you want to listen to in an extension, freeing your bookmarks bar from unnecessary links.

With BackLog, you can sort your albums with beautiful cover art, filter by specified criteria, and head directly to the Rate Your Music page to read reviews and rate the album! You can even click the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button if you want BackLog to choose an album from your BackLog for you to listen to!

FEATURES

Backlog includes filtering by all sorts of criteria, such as Album, Artist, Genre, Rating, and Date Added. 

BackLog Searching: 
You can also search your Backlog with the search bar in order to narrow down your results! You can filter these results even more by using the filters. BackLog will dynamically filter your search results based off of what you select!
