by Siriusfisherman 
These are my best albums of the millennium so far, I was not able to truly experience anything before the past decade so I feel I cannot make judgements on those albums.

The importance of this album is unrivaled by any of the past decade and arguably of all time. Its intricate detail, experimental sounds, dark atmosphere, and unrivaled innovation make it the biggest statement of the millennium so far. Score: 10/10

A truly great dj album, incredible originality in sound and sampling style. The amount of records that were sampled from to give this album its incredible texture makes many wonder how it was even possible to make. Score: 9.7/10

The greatest country album of all time, if it can even be considered country. It is far to complex and beautiful to be compared with any other country album. Score: 9.6/10

Made during the same recording sessions as Kid A, and this album is nearly every bit as incredible the whole way through. The use of Jazz on this album really goes to show the capabilities of the musicians in this band. Score: 9.6/10

The most lyrically honest album I have ever heard. It is not taken seriously in that department, but instead of poetic word play this album shows pure honesty with the company of the some of the best music indie rock has to offer. Just another reason why Arcade Fire tops many people's list of great modern rock bands.

One of the great albums of the genre. While many rappers consecrate on innovations in the lyrical and rhythmic area, Mr. West found himself careening off the path to find musical innovations, and collections for his best record yet. Score: 9.5/10
