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 Tuesday, August 4 at 1:00PM Eastern Time.

I have to question your music taste if you can't find at least one album in this group to vote for. There are 4 great albums in this group.

It's definitely better than Hold Time, but yeah.

Voted for Grizzly Bear, but I like that Thermals album a lot.

Some of these may be cousin-blowingly fantastic but I just haven't heard them.
