eMusic has put together their top 100 records of the decade. A bit less predictable than many others - and of course restricted by what albums they actually are allowed to sell.
A few comps with older material in their list as well.

You can read the remaining 70 on their site.


oh, and pick 3 :)

panda bear

deerhunter

animal collective

in no particular order

love all 3 :wub:

Yep, imaglasgowmanofffewwords said all the words I need to hear.
Three top hole LP's there.

Also rather enjoyed:

The Strokes - Is This It?
The Mountain Goats - The Sunset Tree
Sigur Rós - Agaetis Byrjun
Cannibal Ox - The Cold Vein
Sufjan Stevens - Greetings From Michigan: The Great Lake State
Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It In People

Unfortunately, don't know too many on the list but with the half-a-dozen I do will go with:

Mountain Goats
Interpol
Arctic Monkeys

I voted for The Hold Steady, but think that Almost Killed Me is actually a better lp than Separation Sunday.

From the list: M.I.A, Interpol and Antony and the Johnsons.

Kid A is miles better than In Rainbows.

A toss up between Sigur Rós - Agaetis Byrjun or Saint Vincent - Actor. Both great pieces of in depth work.

Agreed!

I voted for:
The Hold Steady
Spoon
Broken Social Scene

There are several other very good cd's on the list as well.........

Sigar Ros
Broken Social Scene
Arcade Fire

panda bear
animal collective
m.i.a.

I only like the first album here, though I doubt I will ever play my copy of it again.
Thank you.

Voted for M.I.A.

I liked quite a few of these to begin with but the olny one I still play regularly is that one. it seems to offer up new treasure every time I listen :)

The new album is going to be something spectacular...

On edit. 3 you say? In which case, Interpol and Antony and The Johnsons.

Is the MIA album any good?
She just makes me think of students dancing to that one with The Clash sample, and throwing gang signs at each other in time to the "gunshots". :sick:

It could be interpreted like that, I suppose :D

It was seen as cooler than cool for a while and I purposely avoided it for that reason. When I finally heard it, via my daughter I loved it immediately. It's inventive, funny and lyrcially excellent and all of the tunes are memorable.

Great driving music too :)

Fugazi is the only one I voted for

You're talking about "Paper Planes", which isn't on Arular, it's on Kala. -_-

The best song on Arular is probably "Bucky Done Gun": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVX0sVMGCAo

Kala is the better album, I think.

Sigur Rós - Agaetis Byrjun; always something new to hear.
Stands alone.

I think that there was a better Mountain Goats album this decade.

Come to think of it, Thunder Lightning Strike is my favorite of the decade, but I don'y think emusic has it.
