"Top 100 Albums Of When Now?"
rynne:
I like how they refered to Spoon's “1020 AM” like it was a time and not a radio station. Not hitting the snobbery on all cylinders, eh?
Also, WTF? A) Who cares about the midway-point through the decade? This just reeks of “We love to make lists.” Stick to straight reviews, please. And 2) The decade started on Jan. 1, 2001, so they should've waited a year to do this. Loss of pretention points again.
I Am Not Amused:
Wait, if the decade started in 01, then that means the 70s were 1971-1980. Or the 80s were 1981-1990. That makes no sense whatsoever.
In other words, you are wrong.
All in all, I like pitchfork. I think it's a good source of information for burdgeoning indie fans, who are just looking for bands to start out with as they're delving in.
I may be the only person who thinks the choice of Jay-Z at number 2 is a good one on this board, but I'm okay with that. The Blueprint blew my mind when I first listened to it, and continues to do so as I listen to it again and again.
So, yeah. The list was done at the right time, and I thought it was decent. Not great, not excellent, but decent.
Kai:
I personally don't like Pitchfork, simply because I have Tiny Mix Tapes, which is thousands of times better.
Overall, the list wasn't too bad, save for the fact that I can't stand radiohead and Jay-Z was overrated TO THE MAX.

The first decade was the first ten years, right?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
The second decade is then 11–20, the third 21–30, etc. So, 1961–1970 was the 197th decade, and the 201st decade (the one in which we're living) is 2001–2010.
If the first decade started on the year 0, then 2000–2009 would be a decade, but there is no year 0.

That singles list was so full of shitty gangsta rap, I couldn't look at it past page 2.
