Waior
11.23.09 | Yeah, this list is awesome. I wouldn't put marry me over actor and I personally think everything Sam Beam has done since The Creek Drank the Candle is better than it's predecessor.
"i dont have any fleet foxes, radiohead, xx, sufjan, arcade fire, etc. those are he real indie hipster shit."
Stereotypes aside, man, check each of those bands out - excellent stuff. |
Roach
11.23.09 | well there's nothing bad on this list but plenty to be questioned. like metric, m.i.a. and rilo kiley top 20 best of the decade nuh uh |
Kiran
11.23.09 | nicely done on st. vincent, i adore annie clark |
theacademy
11.23.09 | weird no atreyu but ok... |
Inveigh
11.23.09 | planewrech: First of all, I think most people making that comment (at least myself) are joking. Second, this list is titled "top 20 albums of the decade," not "jeremologyy's favorite albums of the decade." So, we're just saying that if you're going to label 20 albums as the best of the decade they should probably come from more than one (or two) genre(s). |
Kiran
11.23.09 | inveigh, the fact that it's a list made by jeremologyy means we can assume it could be aplty re-titled 'jeremologyy's favourite albums of the decade"
... |
theacademy
11.23.09 | not true. |
Inveigh
11.23.09 | not true at all |
Waior
11.23.09 | absolutely true, now shut the hell up. |
theacademy
11.23.09 | taking a leap of logic^
same thing as people who use: 'Ranked' and 'Rated' interchangeably. Whereas one's ratings would create a de facto ranking, the actual literal meaning of the list title is not the same...
example:
Atreyu - Congregation of the Damned = one of my favorites this year =/= one of the best albums released this year |
Inveigh
11.23.09 | ^never seen so much hostility from you waior.. I've never understood how people can get so angry over the comments on this website. It's just the internet, lighten up. Certain people disagreed that these are the top 20 albums of the decade, no reason to shit our pants over it. |
Waior
11.23.09 | Not necessarily being hostile, but bickering about how he neglected to put "ranked" in the title of his list is ridiculous. These are his personal top 20 records, as Kirgasm said, this is "jeremologyy"s list - not the official, objective top 20 albums of the decade list (which will obviously never exist).
Or something along those lines...? |
theacademy
11.23.09 | ur logic wouldnt hold up in court |
theacademy
11.23.09 | ^Too much anti-establishment, indie hipster shit |
Inveigh
11.23.09 | lol @ theacademy.
Also, I understand the point that one COULD assume that the list is jeremologyy's favorite albums because he made it (I already assumed they were his favorites); I'm just saying that people make lists titled "my top" or "favorite" songs/albums/artists of so-and-so all the time and don't bother calling them "the best." There's still the fact that this list is titled "top 20 albums of the decade" and "top" is not a synonym for "favorite" in the English language. Assumptions aside, the list is called what it is called and a few people made a joke about there being too much "boring indie hipster shit" on the list, and a few people got butt-hurt.
I'm really just joking around, I have no problems with any of you and didn't really think that would offend anyone. If it did, I apologize. |
Kiran
11.23.09 | well inveigh, to be honest, since jeremologyy is a user on this site with his own individual taste in music, one would assume a list entitled 'top 20 albums of the decade' would consist of HIS top 20 albums of the decade and no one elses, just as pitchfork has released a list entitled 'top 100 albums of the decade' yet it is, like this list is jeremologyys, merely a tribute to the tastes of pitchforks staff and not an objective, final account of the actual top 100 albums of the decade
also, is it just me, or have a lot of people taken to attempting to correct personal favourites list, as if their opinions automatically override others? gets really annoying browsing through list comments |
cbmartinez
11.23.09 | some good picks but completely invalidated by not one but two joanna newsom albums |
jeremologyy
12.02.09 | haha i apologize for the name of this list. but whatever.

robertsona
01.18.10 | oh my god did theacademy throw down the 'favorite =/= best'
really
really
also list still owns |
theacademy
01.18.10 | dude that was like the least important thing I mentioned. also this was like 10 years ago.
main point was pet peeve: "ranked" is not synonymous with "rated" |
thebhoy
01.18.10 | I like when people say shit like "too much indie hipster shit," like all indie albums sound the same, it makes me question whether they actually listen to the albums or not. |
theacademy
01.18.10 | i can answer that for you: i didn't
i just hopped on the boognish burn train
7 is so much rule tho i love metric |
