Most of my indie collection has eventually faded away into obscurity. I'll plop on a few record sides of whatever was cool according to Pitchfork two or three years ago, and it usually seems pretty forgettable. Indie folk especially seems to be the bane of my existence these days. Its like every time I hear one of those whimpering, prissies sing about animals, houses, or historical figures I just wanna go back in time and kick my own ass for ever illegally downloading it from a blog aggregate in the first place . At that point i throw on a maintenance "Out of the Cellar" by Ratt and proceed to punch my girlfriend's lights out.

Agreed, in theory. That is what defines a great album, that it persists through the years. The ever-appearing problem with that approach, though, is that it makes it very difficult to say anything sensible about great albums from the last decade and we'd be stuck with lists of great albums from the 60s and 70s (of course...that's what my list looks like).
