Agreed with Strikey. There aren't any really bad albums that I've heard on this list.

Not bad. The only album I don't really like is Lil Wayne, but I don't really listen to rap so that figures. And personally, TV On The Radio is top ten worthy, but I wouldn't have put them first. I would've picked Wolf Parade, Bon Iver, Sigur Ros, and Vampire Weekend to be higher. But that's just my opinion.

This is WAY better than Stephen King's list. His was crap.

So good job, The Onion!
