that's one day-cinnt list
Pretty nice list, though I'd get Godspeed's Skinny Fists somewhere in there...
And Ys, and Silent Shout, and Person Pitch.
I can't..
be arsed to worry about rankings and so on but these would be inclusions for me:
GYBE! - Levez..
Goldfrapp - Felt Mountain
The Streets - A Grand Don't Come For Free
Radiohead - Kid A
Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster - Horse Of The Dog
Malcolm Middleton - 5:14 Fluoxytine Seagull Alcohol John Nicotine

M.I.A - Arular
Libertines - Up The Bracket
Cooper Temple Clause - Kick Up The Fire..
The Icarus Line - Penance Soiree
Shed Seven - Truth Be Told
Beacoup Fish
Is on the cusp of the decade, swap that for Medium 21 - Killings From The Dial!
Kid A & Godspeed, as others have mentioned, plus in no particular order:
Lucky Dragons - Dream Island Laughing Language
Don Caballero - American Don
Joanna Newsom - The Milk-Eyed Mender
Boredoms - Seadrum / House of Sun
Max Tundra - Mastered By Guy At The Exchange
Panda Bear - Person Pitch
Bjork - Vespertine
Cornelius - Point
Yo La Tengo - And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out
The Books - Lost And Safe

Four Tet - Rounds
some that i would consider to be of that caliber:
The Bees Made Honey In The Lion's Skull - Earth
Flood - Boris
Black One, Monoliths & Diminsions - Sunn O)))
The Sky's Run Into The Sea - Growing
TOTBL - Interpol
Cryptograms - Deerhunter
Drum's Not Dead -Liars (maybe the long awaited new one)
Lateralus - TOOL
October Language - Belong
Frances The Mute - Mars Volta
The Ape Of Naples - Coil
Kid A - Radiohead
Wolfmother S/T
Silence Is Sexy - Einsturzende
Songs For The Deaf - QOTSA
Maybey a Modest Mouse record (sorry, I gotta give my own kin a chance)
Maybe the new The Twilight Sad (it'd be cool to have the best album come at the last of the decade)
plus about fifty LP's that are close to the top but don't surpass any of those listed
I don't think I am going to choose a rogue album though; I am going to tie my "Album Of The Decade" with "Band Of The Decade" in which case it will wind up being one of these:
Sunn O)))
Boris
Earth
Interpol
Liars
Growing
Probably sunn O)))
my top list should've included Nick Cave's Abittoir Blues/LoO, Dig Lazerus Dig!!! in there
and Michael Gira & Angels Of Light's "How I Love You" and No Age's Weirdo Rippers
This
seconded for Neubauten, Nick Cave and Sunn 0))), at least.
Funnily enough I've been compiling my list (after the shockingly poor list that Kerrang came up with the other week) too, and I'll post it in stages on my Last.fm blog (user=amodelofcontrol) in the coming weeks.
Have you heard the new Wolfmother song?
"Back Round" ?
Yeah, I downloaded it awhile back- sounds like Andrew is back on track although "Back Round" is not quite as fat sounding as the original line up- more refined and his guitar (if that is him playing) has bumped up a notch.
we're just waiting for an album to drop
No, this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7xgXdJ05IY
Been meaning to do this for a while, here's a rough draft:
Radiohead - Kid A

Liars - Drums Not Dead
TV On The Radio - Return To Cookie Mountain

Sufjan Stevens - Illinoise

Panda Bear - Person Pitch
Yo La Tengo - And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out
Queens of the Stone Age - Rated R
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven

Definitely missing some, can't think right now.
add some of this too:
Modest Mouse - The Moon & Antarctica
Burial - Untrue
of Montreal - Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?
Broken Social Scene - You Forgot It In People
The Bronx - The Bronx (Take your pick which one!)
I give up, there's just too much good music from this decade.

And very few for Burial.
Arctic Monkeys?
Rush of Blood to the Head?
Is This It?
My only definite inclusion not mentioned would be Tom Waits - Alice.
twitter hashtag
#lpofthedecade if there is any twitter chat on this lets use this. I'm very intrigued to see what others think.
I'm too suprised 'Is This It', hasn't had any love yet.
Yup
Some great lists but I am going to predict that Pitchfork will give it to Arcade Fire for Funeral or TOD's Source Tags and Codes. I swear to god if they give it to someone like Dan Deacon or Deer Hunter – I will laugh in the face.
I would like to just mention that Aereogramme’s My Heart Has A Wish was my favorite of the decade.
Respect
I was just looking over Pitchfork's old lists
Do you think their album of the decade will go to something that topped their album of the year list?
It'll be Kid A
top ten will be a couple of animal collective albums (sung tongs and merriweather probably), kanye west, sufjan, arcade fire, interpol, jay-z... couple of others.. source tags & codes will be top 50... wouldn't be surprised to see an eminem album high up too
something like
frog eyes - tears of the valedictorian

clockcleaner - babylon rules
songs:ohia - magnolia electric co.

the shins - oh, inverted world
clap your hands say yeah - s/t
sonic youth - murray st.
new pornographers - electric version
menomena - friend and foe
the exploding hearts - guitar romantic
enon - high society
no age - nouns
dinosaur jr. - beyond
two gallants - the throes
crystal stilts - alight of night
the thermals - the body the blood the machine
metallic falcons - desert doughnuts
band of horses - everything all the time
boards of canada - geogaddi
Hmmm here goes:
1 - Unwound - Leave Turns Inside Me

3 - Radiohead - Kid A
4 - Isis - Panopticon
5 - Tool - Lateralus
6 - A Silver Mt Zion - 13 Blues for 13 Moons

The Disintegration Loops grabs the number one spot.
Animal Collective and Sunn O))) beating the shit out of each other for the second slot.
Deerhunter, Deerhoof and The Microphones frolic in a thicket beneath the carnage.
Sunset Rubdown, Black Dice, Fennesz, Girl Talk, Portishead, Liars?
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Death From Above 1979, Tim Hecker, Oneida, Burial, Xiu Xiu, Battles? But of course.
Max Tundra, Comets On Fire, Antony And The Johnsons, Dirty Projectors, they'd have to be in there somewhere.
Or...Let's try this.
1-Animal Collective-Merriweather Post Pavilion (yeah, that's right.)
2-The Microphones-Mount Eerie
3-Madvillain-Madvillainy
4-Deerhunter-Microcastle/Weird Era Cont.
5-Cannibal Ox-The Cold Vein

20-Fennesz-Endless Summer
Now we're talkin'
I dont know if Im ready to make my list yet, but about 8 or 9 of those will be somewhere in mine.
Man... Ive been diving into Scott Walker for a few weeks... not sure yet... its so hard to latch on to. He doesn't make things easy does he? I see the appeal and the scope of what he's doing, but it may take some time, if it ever even does get there for me.
I'd definately have The Drift
I donno which animal collective one I'd have, I think my favourite is Strawberry Jam. Good to see somebody finally mention portishead. I'll be very surprised if that doesn't show up on loads of the end of the year lists.
My prediction
PF will have at least 2 wtf choices, like Justin Timberlake or Britney or 50 Cent or some Brazillian Afro-beat combo, in the Top 10.
Radiohead - Kid A takes to spot,
obviously.
Otherwise, some favouries have been... (in no order, and off the top of my head)
Fiery Furnaces - Blueberry Boat
Yo La Tengo - I am not afraid of you and I will beat your ass
Madvillain - Madvillainy
Goldfrapp - Felt Mountain
Boris - Smile
Broken Social Scene - You Forgot it In People
Deerhoof - Milk Man
Beach House - S/T
Flying Lotus - LA
Tom Waits - Real Gone
Gang Gang Dance - St Dymphna
Madlib - Beat Konduct vols 5 & 6
Rufus Wainwright - Poses
Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
... not a very imaginative list. I've forgotten loads of favourites as well, I'm sure.
Yes...
to Madvillain and Madlib. Shame there isnt more hip to the hop sprinkled throughout these lists.
I just looked at what I listed and there's none.
My brain isn't functioning correctly.
Get on it...
but I know you'll come correct.

but you need some more hip hop in your library of you think either of your chosen rap LPs are in the top 25 (or even 100) of the last decade.
YA TO BE HONEST I DO.
so? I just haven't got Donuts yet, but the Shining is ace. I like Atmosphere's album though, a lot more than the other 00's hip hop albums I like, such as Like Water for Chocolate, Power In Numbers, Violent By Design, Phrenology, The Game Theory etc.

Holy crap, there's definitely no consensus here
we're a pretty diverse bunch- that's cool
I'm really surprised I didn't see a lot more Interpol mentions. TOTBL
Surprise, sometimes, will come around
Surprise, sometimes, will come around
I will surprise you sometime.
I'll come around

Is this just a list of the only 85 albums you have heard since 2000?
^Snob?
Though, to be fair, I'm all up for a healthy heavy dose of musical fascism. I could barely find 10 albums from all of the above lists that I'd pick, and only 3 in the OP that I've included in my top 85 and that I'd even consider for my top 25.
Which is why I made /my/ list. To right the OUTRAGEOUS wrongs of everyone so far. ;-)
Any thoughts on the top pop of Goldfrapp, Gorrilaz, Hives, Staint Etienne?
I really like 75% of your list BTW
Cheers bigears
us old gits need to stick together. :-D
I would've included Ikara Colt - Chat And Business (2002) but seeing as it was disqualified from the 'real' charts - because the stickers were classed as a free gift - I thought I'd do the same.
But I shoulda added Supreme Vagabond Craftsman - Just You, Me And The Baby (2007)
Oh I dunno, from these - possibly...

You disgust me...
:-D
I forgot Britney's 'Blackout'
This was a glaring omission.
I imagine there were 30 similar such offences, mainly from the years 2000 and 2005.
Wrong Liars album.
DangerDoom? And no Madvillain? Jurassic 5? You have some hip hop related problems.

What little amount of hip-hop is on these lists is some pretty miserable stuff.
Y'all must educate yourselves.
rap isn't really about the album though, is it?
singles etcetera
Wrong.
Dead wrong.
predictable accusation

I love it like my own. I'm constantly surprised - nay, ASTONISHED that Coquelicot isn't universally revered as the zenith of OM's works. Definitely one of my fave albums of all time, never mind the 00s.
But then I prefer Loaded to The Velvet Underground & Nico, so many might say I don't deserve to have ears.
