Only disadvantage is the lower ranks of Kid A and FSLS, but otherwise I respect your opinion, fully my man.

I love the way this chart begins with Ryan Adams' Gold, which is such a wonderful rock album and sets a great tone for the rest of your selections. (I picked Cold Roses, which I like a little bit more.) You've got a bevy of excellent picks here, especially Fleet Foxes, Sound of Silver, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, and Funeral (I know everyone loves that one, but it's for good reason). Plenty for me to explore here, starting with Choochtown.
