Wow - Okkervil River in the top 10. Considering the quality of the rest of your list, I guess I'll have to give them another try.

i really like that record. its consistently good, and while some would call it a bit whiney, its great somgwriting. the addition of the EP makes it pretty much perfect, IMHO.

OCD

read two chapters of the tao te ching and call me in the morning

Very good list... for me one of the lowest percentages of "huh?" of any list yet. I am surprised Sun Kil Moon made it on so many lists. I bet it may be one of the most mentioned of all post 2000 releases.

im not sure...maybe more "huh?" is the way to go
