I think theres a very sound argument for flylo being the artist of the decade. Not sure who else I'd even consider for that

I wouldn't have an issue putting him as artist of the decade. Dude doesn't stop being amazing.

He’d probably make my top 10 artists of the decade. Agreed that You’re Dead is his weakest.

Lol probably Ulver, Kayo Dot, Tame Impala, The National, Nick Cave, Steven Wilson, Foals, Intronaut, Alcest, Flying Lotus in no order. Radiohead if TKoL:LftB & all their non-album songs are counted in.

hmm. can't really humour any of those for my own for various reasons personally. i think you could make a great argument for Radiohead being one of the best of the 00s, but for the 10s thats pretty massive stretch. same with kayo dot but thats more due to preference.

this decade's Radiohead output has been sparse (i don't know how you can give the decade to an artist who released only 2 original albums within the entire 10 year span, one of which is almost entirely made up of songs not even written in the decade), met with probably the most mixed reception of their career, and i think indisputably much less influential than their past material.

I agree with your point about Radiohead, but I loved TKoL:LftB and A Moon Shaped Pool and are two of my most listened to albums, so it felt weird to not at least mention them.

los angeles has the most homogenous standalones more like

not that they aren't all great or that there is a lack of tracks that are strong out of context by any means

but there aren't any particularly ~transcendent~ tracks either

i kinda get that but i'd never call it homogenous
but ur right that it doesn't have a zodiac shit/getting there/never catch me etc
gng bng and robertaflack are deff transcendent though

I dunno dude I've always found LA quite homogeneous. It's really not an insult in this context though.

Camel is my fav but I dont think it particularly transcends anything in terms of the albums sound

No harm being sonically consistent when the sound is fire af
