So happy to see Matt Berninger make the list this year...that combo of smoldering voice and snappy dressing get me every time.
I agree. I usually prefer Stereogum's list, but this year it was Pitchfork for me.
Pretty sure "Pumped Up Kicks" came out last year, too.
I can't reply on Stephen's comment for some reason, but I'm pretty sure that "Pumped Up Kicks" came out in 2010.
Drake is shaping up to be this year's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
I'd like to see Gauntlet Hair on some of these lists. I loved that album.
I think he's on his way to popularity here. He put on a great set at CMJ and seemed like a lot of folks showed up to see him.
James Blake at 41? A travesty! That album is easily top 10.
I'm crossing my fingers that Chubby Ben makes a comeback.
Or watching her awful TV show.
I was fairly young when Nevermind came out, but was already an MTV junkie. I remember seeing the "Teen Spirit" video for the first time thinking this is something REALLY different than all the hair metal and bad R&B that was usually being played. It seemed exciting and like music was on the brink of something big.
Commodores! Brick House!!!!!
This Civil War Reenactment was a really lousy idea, Jonny.
Love is All, Best Coast, and Superchunk all made my top 25.
Absolutely. I don't think it's even fair to group EPs in with full-length albums.
I agree with everything said here. Right on.
