Jesusetc84 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 By whom? It certainly isn't in the circles I run in. Chutes is a good album, don't get me wrong, but "Oh, Inverted World" has much cooler production. They haven't done anything that strange and beautiful since. I think Chutes has more mainstream acclaim but that the fanbase is 50/50, if not in the corner of Oh, Inverted World. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gabepride Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 that said, Beulah >>>>> The Shins, so there's that.No doubt. The Coast Is Never Clear and Yoko should've been strong contenders for this Pitchfork list (although Yoko is kind of a second-rate YHF, I still really like it). And while I'm whining about albums left off the list, how about The Apples in Stereo's New Magnetic Wonder, or either High Water Marks album? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TCP Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 For sure, Yoko is a terrific record. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deepseacatfish Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Calexico blew them to pieces both nights Speaking of Calexico, that's one band that deserves a place on this list but didn't get on. I've got some gripes, but overall I think this list is reasonably solid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
