Your Top Albums (hipster pitchfork thing)

Pitchfork has just started "The People's List". It's where all of their users choose their top 20-100 albums from when Pitchfork started (1996) to 2011, and then they'll compile that into a list. I know, I know, Pitchfork is hipster bullshit, but it's still fun to choose your favorites and see how they fare.

Here's my list (so far):

I'm realizing that I haven't really listened to enough album. I had a hard time even getting to 20.

I'm not sure why, but I think BCM likes Aphex Twin.

here's my list made on the spot in 15 minutes yesterday and without any real order

imma update it nao

it would be kinda funny if this effort was spammed and the picks consisted of nothing but big beat, nu metal, derivative trip-hop, trance DJ mixes, and adult contemporary albums that won Grammys. Not truly bad music either, but stuff too good to ever be ironically praised by pitchfork. As a bonus, all the positive reviews pitchfork have since deleted from their archives (seriously, I swear they've removed reviews they'd be embarrassed about now) could be sprinkled throughout the list.

Not in order, though the first few are ranked about right for me personally. Nice format actually regarding the search and adding features - their lists help me save time.

Pitchfork have realised they have shit taste and want you to do their job for them.

FUCK YOU PITCHFORK

You dont deserve my taste.
