Not sure what I expected, but I'm bummed to not see Peaking Lights or Gonjasufi. I would've voted Street Halo or Kindred for Burial, and Channel Orange over Blonde. It's nice to see Jlin, DJ Rashad, Kelela, and Shabazz Palaces. No Andy Stott tho??? No Ariel Pink?

I replied that they should check with Scaruffi first :lol:


Yep. And then the editors at Pitchfork had a six month debate about whether Scaruffi is woke enough to use his criteria for making this list.


Truth!!! 🤣

So, I tried making my 2010s chart last night before I ever looked at whatever this was, and I currently have about 27 artists/albums that are the same between Pitchfork's 200 and my 84. Although, I'm making my chart a little more broad in terms of appeal for the 2010s. I tried to think more of a mass audience, instead of my specific tendencies, which is where some of the similar albums come from.

No Drake though.

And why 'Beyondless' for the Iceage album?

So many questions.

Ok. That's it! I'm making my own damned 2010s list. One that's predicated on growing up on 70s Hard Rock, Metal & Punk instead. I actually like both the Paste & Pitchfork lists well enough but the dearth of ass-kicking rock sucks.

Please send me recs to help in this quest. I welcome a group effort on this as well. Cheers & up the irons! \m/

the editors having the final say)

I think this approach, of the big dogs swooping in to make sure that the list is a reflection of what they consider Pitchfork to represent, is massively reductive and harming the genuineness of their lists in general. We want Pitchfork's albums of the decade, not a revised rehash of safe bets that the higher-ups think will get more hits for ad revenue.

It's a shame, since when you allow lists like these to be wide-ranging and collaborative (as Pitchfork used to) you get treated to an underground gem or two that a couple of staff writers put high on their personal picks, but maybe didn't get massive exposure at the time of release. Retrofitting artists that the editors consider "culturally important" to a large amount of people just seems like cheap bid for relevancy, when the majority of people who visit the site regularly come to be pleasantly surprised by stuff that may have fallen through the cracks, not to be told that Rihanna and Drake each made one of the best albums of the decade.

Just my two cents anyway...

Yeah, may as well have just let the votes stand. Pitchfork trying to be 2 cool I guess.

Paste's song list is kinda just like a slightly better remix of Pitchforks, with insane similarity to the point I think they took P4k's list into consideration 🤣 I'd give it the edge up though. Archie, Marry Me up so high gives it lots of bonus points.

What's with everyone's Kendrick pick for the decade being 'Alright'? 😕 I don't think I'd be pushing it by saying he's released at least 15 songs this decade I prefer to it.
