thoughts?

Bon Iver :dazzled:

 

eh I think Youth Lagoon should be ranked slightly higher. So is Fleet Foxes.

 

And wow, Beirut is not even in the list.

I like this list much more than Rolling Stone's.

 

Bon Iver deserves the #1 spot. :thumbsup:

]And wow, Beirut is not even in the list.

 

They probably don't include any albums that were given less than an 8.0

yeah, neither Radiohead (7.9) or Coldplay (7.0) are on it.

STRANGE MERCY SHOULD BE HIGHER STUPID WEBSITES AND THEIR STUPID LISTS

I like this list much more than Rolling Stone's.

 

Most definitely.

 

^ IVET. I love your new avi. :cheesy:

Sufjy :dazzled:

It, for some reason won't change colors :(

I'mma try to fix it

YAY

 

:escaping:

I totally agree that Youth Lagoon should be higher. I think it's in my top ten.

Parallax is so great

M83 so worthy! James Blake is great! Drake was pretty good as well as The Weeknd House of Balloons. I like SBTRKT too. I have to check out Bon Iver. Ive been hearing good noise about it.

 

Will be checking out Parallax and Youth Lagoon!

Good list, Bon Iver deserves nr. 1. Still don't get the fuss about Cults.

I've never even heard of most of those artists.

 

Lots of numbers and consonents and weird titles up there. Looks like a computer glitch.:laugh3:

People are very creative when it comes to album titles!

 

But yeah, since I've only heard 1 of those albums and like ~5 of the artists, I can't say I like it.

Was kinda hoping M83 would upset Bon Iver, but they went with the safe option. Oh well.

 

Favorite list so far is probably Consequence of Sound's.

^ I actually really didn't like there's either, but I thought the order of the albums they did have was pretty good, and I was glad to see the inclusion of Slave Ambiant. Still, none of these lists get even close to doing it for me.:\

obviously you listen to mostly rock music and well we live in a world where many different styles of music are put together on the same list!

It annoys me that Adele's is not on it but Beyonce's is.

the Beyonce album wasn't that great

no it wasn't

Yeah. I expect alot of stuff I like to be left off, that's how life is y'know. Just dissapointed none of the lists have had very many rock albums. But whatchya gonna do?:shrug:

Well, I think there's a reason why people would put the other albums on there. It's not like the lists are filled with nothing but crap albums. (Well, maybe the SPIN list is a bit debatable as far as that goes, but it even has a few good albums, although ridiculously ranked.)

Adele is overrated. She is the epitome of boring. Not just her songs, but her performances as well. She doesnt have some spectacular range and her voice isnt particularly powerful. Im at a lost at her popularity. Shes a good singer though. Just good. 21 doesnt fair well in comparison to 19 to me.

 

Beyonce album have somewhat quality R&B songs on it, although she likes to scream like she is running from an ax murder at times. Her album was blah though. That "Girls" single was just dreadful. I really only liked 3 songs [4 including deluxe version] depending on how Im feeling.

 

Both can be boring, but R&B and Soul genres arent supposed to be "exciting'' though. I like R&B and Soul music, but they both are way too overrated and shouldn't be on these lists.

 

I feel like both market off their image. Beyonce sells sex and a questionable pregnancy and Adele sells her "ordinariness" if that makes sense. Her normalness and ordinary image appeals to people. Its quite ironic. I do commend her for it.

No way Radiohead aren't in the top 30 so list void.

Good to see Atlas Sound in their, but it's his worst album of the three so how it charted above TKOL I don't know.
