Top 100 Music Albums of the 2010s
by pearljammer13

Good chart. I have to admit I haven't been able to get into the Atlers much. May need to give them another shot. Can't get into Bon Iver either but I don't think I'm going to give him another shot. I think I would prefer to continue to dismiss him. I like Manchester Orchestra, although I actually prefer Bad Books. Like to see them on here. I really like the eels as well and you don't see much love for E here. Never at the top of any years best of list, but every album is solid and the guy's ridiculously prolific (the Steven King of music) churning out pretty much an album a year (one year he relased two albums) not to mention all the bsides. Angles by The Strokes is a questionable choice but I'm glad Countdown Machine didn't make an appearance. wtf happened to those guys? Nice to see AM up near the top. Unlike the Strokes, their fifth album is their best since the debut. Cheers.

simple math! even though I wouldn't have it number, I love Manchester Orchestra and it makes me happy to see them getting some well deserved love.

Nice chart! I can't believe I forgot Radiohead on mine. Gotta fix it thx.

Jammer, Nice to see Car Seat Headrest up so high on your list. It does appear that you haven't been making many new additions to your list, suggesting that you haven't been acquiring much in the way of new music. Super surprised Moon Shaped Pool isn't on your list yet. Not a fan or have you not added it to your collection yet?

An interesting thing happened to me this spring. For some reason after 52 years of discounting rap music I've suddenly become a huge fan. For the past three months I've pretty much been listening to Car Seat Headrest and rap. I've become a huge fan of Kendrick, Run the Jewels, Vince Staples etc. Shockingly, I even like Kanye's first two albums (although still hate everything else). No one is more surprised than I am.

Thanks again for taking the time Jeff. Not sure with your taste that you'd like the Antlers, but definitely try out Burst Apart, it's a grower. I love The Eels earlier stuff. The more recent hasn't been as good, but like you said he's so prolific that I'm not surprised the quality has gone down a bit. The Strokes have been moving in the wrong direction ever since Is This It? (but where else could they go really?). Glad to hear your a fan of Manchester Orchestra/Bad Books too!
