Are we important enough to do a "Best of the 00's so far"? Using the charts like we did with the Shmoo Poll, how hard would this be? Maybe just a Top 10.

ive floated this idea around multiple times, but it would seem it just aint gonna fly. there just arent enough people interested.

Upon further consideration, these are good too:

McLusky Do Dallas
De-loused in the Comatorium
Tyranny of Distance
Distorted Lullabies

days of new - is this a joke?

why did you just list album titles and not the bands?

i will give you the ours for sure as well as ted leo..

mars volta - now that is a stretch

Tough. YHF, a Ted Leo, and Mclusky, maybe the Libertines st one, maybe the Nick Cave, or You Are Free. Or some Joe Pernice. Or or or and and and.

have you listened to it? actually, my two favouries of his are this one and the one right after bm, the audio of being. bm is good, but it doesnt hold a candle to avalanche.

i reckon that would be an awesome idea. Enough time has passed for most of the records to sink in rather than their hype still swaying us.

Red House Vincent · **Posted:** Sun Feb 12, 2006 4:50 am

I'm not sure if anything will really top Kid A.

I am A Bird Now is getting close, though.

The Notwist---Neon Golden

With "And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out", Yo La Tengo
"Uh huh, Her", P.J. Harvey
"Ricketts and Scurvey", David Griggs
"Dongs of Sevotion", Smog

Somehow YHF, Kid A, Lights and all the other "hits" seem in a different category... just my talmudic delineations important to me only.

I wasn't trying to be tricky, I just figured people would know who the artist was.

As for Days of the New, they're one of my favorite bands. Not ashamed of it.

Overall, I like his third album the least of the three. However, it contains three of my favorite songs, therefore I would consider it one of my favorite albums of the 00's. Dirty Road, Die Born and Dancing with the Wind.

2. Broadcast - Ha ha sound
3. Interpol - Turn on the bright lights
4. Nick Cave - Abattoir blues/the lyre of orpheus
5. Roots manuva - Run come save me
5. Neko case - Blacklisted
6. Colleen - The golden morning breaks
7. PJ Harvey - Stories From the City, Stories From the Sea
9. Songs: Ohia - Didn't it Rain
10.Dirty three - whatever you love you are

honourable mention: dirtbombs - ultragilde in black
