I don't think I've seen Why? listed on any list ever... a quirky, appealing, unheard of band.

There are a lot of my favorite albums on that list, but also a lot of utter crap.

I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to differentiate the two.

some good albums in this list, but just as pointless as many other lists.

Actually, I find it quite enlightening.
Some good names to at least keep an eye out for.

How is this classified as one band/one album? Really odd :? .

Although looking at the ones below it I take back any sense of pride or "psychic music link" theories. Ick. And most of what's below #5 is shite too. :(

Apart from the Bjork, it honestly looks like they just took a random sampling of album titles from hat time period and put them in random order.

I think Discostu and Ish should answer this question for us.

You'll be excited to know I will release my Top 100 (not 66, 100!) albums of the decade in 2010.

That gives me 3 and a bit years to write 100 album reviews. Luckily I'll be back on the dole in 2009.
