Albums of the Aughts


Recommended Posts

I always enjoy lists but this one is crap. I completely disagree with the statement that "no one really considers the current decade to be a period of "great" music". There are tons of great things being released all the time, it's just not the shit you ever hear on the radio.

#1 (IMO):

Joe Pisapia - Daydreams

(I think that I might have mentioned that album somewhere else before. ;) )

Any list that contains both System of a Down's Toxicity and Ben Folds' Rockin' the Suburbs is not worth reading. You gotta be kidding me.

Yes, but the little article about YHF is worth reading... Nice article; it explains the reasoning behind the "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" sample at the end of "Poor Places'. I never knew that.

My favorites..apart from the 5 Wilco's released this decade:

 

Leonard Cohen - 10 New Songs

Bob Dylan - Love & Theft, Modern Times

Ryan Adams- Heartbreaker, Easy Tiger

Lucinda Williams - Essence, World Without Tears

Solomon Burke - Don't Give Up On Me

David Gray - White Ladder

Elvis Costello - The Delivery Man

Johnny Cash- Amercan IV

Paul Simon - Surprise

Townes Van Zandt- In The Beginning (posthumous, so I guess it wouldn't count..but what a treat)

Radiohead- In Rainbows

Golden Smog - Another Fine Day

White Stripes- Icky Thump

 

I've got others but my head is in a fog today....maybe later.

Agree...it was a good review, the only odd omission was not mentioning the Kot book.

Around '00, my friends and I were planning on calling it "The New Shit" - as in "The New Shit n' One"..."The New Shit n' Two"...didn't last.

 

 

I'm liking "The New Shit" .....anyone..... :pirate
