This is the first part (the group stage) in Obner's efforts to pick the best album released in the 2000s. In the group stage, there will be 64 groups of 5 albums. The top vote-getter in each group will advance to the 64-album tournament.

Please vote for the album that you feel deserves to be in the tournament. The deadline for this group is Wednesday, July 29 at 1:00PM Eastern Time.

Is that supposed to be evidence? Someone's older sister from 1974, playing dress-up in stockings before going back to the chess club?

Way to put 4 albums I really like in the same bracket, with no albums I really like in the last one...

My mind says Trail of Dead, but my heart's with Mirah.

I wanted to say Mavis, but I wanted so much more from that record than I got.
Trail Of Dead.

Probably top 3 for me, but someone had already nominated it before mine dropped.
