Personnaly i think that this chart is really a good description of what have been well produced this decade, even if i see only in the top 10 Is This It and Kid A[/img][/url]

I thought Rolling Stones list was going to be the worst one, but in all honesty it isn't they did a lot better than Entertainment Weekly for example. But that being said it is still pretty bad between having the typical albums and awful albums. Currently a few of my favorite best of the 00s lists have been Pitchfork's, The A.V. Club's, and Stereogum's.

Two Bob Dylan albums...what a surprise Rolling Stones.

I'd agree with about 50% of that list.

I think it's funny that Rolling Stone put Coldplay's Rush of Blood to the Head on their top 500 list but it didn't make top 20 here... finally came to their senses. It is a pretty generic top 20 though; and I don't think Bob Dylan should be up there, especially with two albums...

Actually Rush of Blood to the Head was 21st album !

That is a pretty sweet top 10. Personally I loved Modern Times & Love & Theft.

It's Rolling Stone. Of course it's bad. Nice to see The Woods on there, though.
