my comments

1. i can't believe that those coldplay albums are against each other.

2. number 11 just hurts my soul

3. why are the only two albums i don't know against each other?

number 11 was cruel.

 

heh, I knew you would have a hard time with that. I also found it kind of funny that Keane is smashing MBV when pitchfork listed loveless as the 2nd greatest album of the 90s, and gave Hopes and Fears a 2.8 :P
