I think the list is pretty good really, though Untrue by Burial should probably be top if we're being honest.

Blimey, I've actually got 7 of them. ….. the more respectable ones of course. Toumani Diabate and Ali Farka Toure, both Amy Winehouse, Blackstar, Fleet Foxes, and …… 2 others.

Edit - The XX and P J Harvey. (Let England Shake.)

That list is an absolute joke. American Idiot by Green Day, Meteora by Linkin Park and Recovery by Eminem are all obvious absentees from that ridiculous list.

Good list - Frank Ocean and Joanna Newsom are excellent.

I'm with you on this one. In fact I thought Lady Gaga was a woman! Apparently, it's this chap. Who knew?

Some good stuff in there I own 54 of the 100. But loads of great stuff left out.

Also highlights for me what a good decade 2000-09 was but not so good this decade. Maybe it’s just me having less time to buy and listen though.

Big Kanye fan but Yeezus in to the top 20? Absolute bollocks. It’s not in his best 5 albums ffs. :lolol:

MBDTF at 3 is spot on though. Dizzee, Kendrick & The Streets in the top 10. I’m a fan.

3 stand out albums for me

1.In Rainbows - Radiohead
2.Sound of Silver - LCD Soundsystem
3.Turn on the Bright Lights - Interpol

Plenty of other really good stuff but those 3 are absolute classics
