No love for the Turn on the Bright Lights L.R.?

Anyway, I'll throw together a quick list of 25. It's pretty much in order, but things always change day-to-day.

1. Radiohead - Kid A
2. Murder by Death - Who Will Survive and What Will be Left of Them?
3. Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights
4. Green Day - American Idiot
5. Modest Mouse - The Moon & Antarctica
6. The Streets - A Grand Don't Come for Free
7. Radiohead - Amnsesiac
8. Godspeed you Black Emperor! - Lift your Skinny Fists like Antennas to Heaven
9. Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf
10. Arcade Fire - Funeral
11. Liars - They Threw us in Trench and Stuck a Monument on Top
12. The Streets - Original Pirate Material
13. TV on the Radio - Desperate Youths, Bloodthirsty Babes
14. ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead - Source Tags & Codes
15. The Rapture - Echoes
16. Calla - Scavengers
17. Interpol - Antics
18. Sufjan Stevens - Greeting From Michigan
19. Radiohead - Hail to the Thief
20. Calla - Televise

On my shame list is that I still have never heard Yankee Hotel Foxtrot despite all of the good praise. Don't laugh too hard at me Wink

Nope, I have little-to-no love for Interpol...

and there are a few albums on your list released after 2004... "Feels" and "Return To Cookie Mountain" in particular.

Does anyone have a copy of this list as it has been removed from pitchfork, along with a few other features. I also can't find the "best records of" before about 2005, how far back did they do those?



The head of state has called for me, but I don't have time for him

None of the lists are gone. Just go to the archives section, and on the right there's a link for "staff lists." You then have to go to the 2nd, 3rd pages etc.
