^^^ Well for mainstream music which is what's listed there yes. This decade has been awesome for non mainstream music in my opinion. Some of my favorite albums ever have come out in the past 10 years.

And no I'm not going to even try to make a top 10,20,50, or 100 of the decade lol.

^ Post it.

What ones off of the Rolling Stone list do you like?
Here's the link...

http://pitchfork.com/features/staff-lists/7706-the-top-200-albums-of-the-2000s-200-151/ (The list is partitioned,i.e., 200-150, 150-100, etc. so you have to click the respective links.)

It's the 200 best albums of the 2000's list. And the funny thing about it is you can tell Rolling Stones definitely saw Pitchfork's list and plagiarized, then to off-set it threw in some more palatable shit.

Not ll of these should be on the list but here is a nice chunk of the list I did enjoy over the decade.

Radiohead: Kid A
LCD Soundsystem: Sound of Silver
OutKast: Stankonia
Beck: Sea Change
D'Angelo: Voodoo
Radiohead: Hail To The Thief
Radiohead: Amnesiac
Arcade Fire: Funeral
M.I.A.: Kala
Yeah Yeah Yeahs: Fever to Tell
Sigur Rós: Ágaetis Byrjun
System of a Down: Toxicity
TV on the Radio: Dear Science
M.I.A.: Arular
Björk: Vespertine
Radiohead: Hail to the Thief
Amadou & Miriam: Dimanche a Bamako
The Streets: Original Pirate Material
Sigur Rós: ()
Queens of the Stone Age: Rated R
TV on the Radio: Return to Cookie Mountain
Radiohead: In Rainbows
