wow a list that is actually somewhat respectable
| | | old
| | | I am sad abidisi shank is not on there
| | | This list is better than the other one.
Other than Vampire Weekend.
| | | The first 4 are great, 5 is average, 12 is ok, and 15 is solid. List gets minus points for Kings of Leon and My Morning Jacket however.
| | | Haha aww british people....
| | | take out 20.
| | | woo Third!
| | | 8, 14, 18.
yessssss...
| | | portishead album is slightly overrated. I can dig most of this list. It's not a typical list to see, ie. James Blackshaw, Stephen Malkmus.
Kings of Leon and My Morning Jacket should not be on this list.
| | | yeah Third isn't nearly as good as Portishead's self titled or Dummy album
| | | List needs more opeth
| | | i dont understand the portishead love but okay
| | | you say that about the KOL, but, as an album, its actually very good, you cant really say its bad, you may not like them, like me, but it is solid.
| | | I used to hate Elbow, but 6 is a fucking nmasterpiece, can't wait to see those guys live =)
| | | No Overcome or Ultra Beatdown? damn...
| | | w00t for malkmus
| | | I like the Elbow album quite a lot, it will probably end up in my top 10 for the year, and Third and Dear Science, are alright. The rest I don't like, don't know, or don't care about.
