it's difficult to disagree with whether an album is placed at 93 or 47 or whatever, unless i think it's either utter shit or the shit. clearly everything higher no. 30 is not the shit but still worthy of a mention.
what i'd be interested to know is which celebrated albums of the are not even worthy of a top 100 mention?
eh?
Which of the year's rated albums did not float your boat??
Me personally I like what's goin down with this list. Personally, I think The Killers was awful, and Glasvegas was overrated, so I'd agree with it being way outside the top 50.
You?
the spiritualized album was a huge disappointment, in fact it was so dull it was shit. in contrast, the welcome wagon was a massive boon.
Oh, and if you haven't got ben folds or portishead in the top top 60, prepare yourself for a massive karate kick in the balls, peeps!
what supposed good stuff didn't float my boat?
cat power is sinking in hers. this year she continued her slide into a muddy swampland - a land where she delusively believes she's a southern soul legend. she used to be great - a true original. cease with the covers now.
i hope vampire weekend or fleet foxes aren't in the top ten. neither are really as amazing as they're made out to be. top 30 i'll grant you. tv on the radio, however, did live up to the hype.
never eard of any of dese fuckin shite
u reckon wheels? reckon vkend is decent mself. cat power is a sack o manure like.
was strokes this year?
