oh, sorry about that.
if that is case let me rephrase:

In no particular order:

Stephen Malkmus-Face the Truth
Silver Jews-Tanglewood Numbers
Mogwai-Mr. Beast
The Sea and Cake-Everybody
Sonic Youth-Sonic Nurse
Ugly Casanova-Sharpen Your Teeth
Pinback-Summer in Abaddon
Verbena-La Musica Negra
Built to Spill-Ancient Melodies of the Future.
Radiohead-Hail to the Thief


I don't think Radiohead has never made a "weak" album. Just different. And right now, I prefer Hail to the Thief to Kid A. I'm not saying ones better or worse, because with Radiohead, all of their albums are great, but they are drastically different. My favorite Radiohead album changes almost every two months. Although, In Rainbows has never been my favorite. But I respect it, and think it's great. It just hasnt grown on me like the others have. Kid A and Hail to the Thief I connected with immediately because they not only lived up to the excitement of a new Radiohead Album, they went beyond expectations.

Well I voted for two of those (Wilco and Radiohead). Also hate to be the one to break it to you, but as discussed earlier, Vision Creation Newsun came out at just the tail end of 1999, or else it would have been real high on mine and atsonicparks's lists.

atsonicpark 08.13.2008 12:51 PM

Yes, definitely.

I love pre-good news modest mouse, and I think Holopaw is fantastic. When I'm in the mood to listen to Holopaw, there's nothing else that I know of that is close to their sound. I wish Isaac Brock would leave Modest Mouse for awhile, and play with Ugly Casanova for 2 albums, hell even just one album. I just want Modest Mouse to be good again.

But not in America. :( 1/1/00. I think it should count.

But I guess that would require some obnoxious shifting around, even if it did pass. I will have only 9, then. In protest.

SYRFox 08.14.2008 07:04 AM

Bump bump bump! It's still time to vote everybody, but only for a few hours :)

al shabbray 08.14.2008 07:43 AM

when exactly will you put out the results?

SYRFox 08.14.2008 07:44 AM

Uh, in like three or four hours.

I’ve cast my vote some minutes ago and cannot stop thinking of albums that were equally deserving of being included in my list of 10.

I eventually came up with quite a random list. I could not think of albums from this ongoing decade that really stand out: I could think of a lot of albums of this decade that I really like, but had no idea on how to rank them. I must admit I am not good at ranking albums/bands in general, but I guess in that case it is also due the fact that the decade is still ongoing and this all seems too recent: one probably needs more time to realise the greatness of an album…

Anyway, I'm rooting for "Endless Summer", which I have not listened to in quite some time, now that I think about it.

Everyneurotic 08.14.2008 08:01 AM

ohh crap you all take this too fucking serious, i didn't analyze all the albums that have come out in the last 8 years and balance them in a scale or any of that shit, i just made a list of albums that rule, period.

in fact, i pretty much forgot what albums i voted for.

al shabbray 08.14.2008 08:51 AM

thats a great one of course, only got a promo copy, is the album art worth buying it?

al shabbray 08.14.2008 09:12 AM

I would need to order it, cause here isnt any good record store around
