Album of the decade thread 20:43 - Nov 28 with 9381 viewsvapour_trail

119 months down, one to go, safe to say we’ve probably got the runners and riders now, albeit bluefish still has the new Robbie Williams to consider.

Here’s mine



Honourable mention

Tribe called quest - thanks for your service, we got it from here
Radiohead - moon shaped pool
Max cooper - emergence
Nick cave - skeleton tree

Appreciate this dates me.

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - Kanye West

Musical perfection, so good that it’s been mine avatar for most of the decade.

Very notable mention for Blonde by Frank Ocean.

I’ve gone early. I’m bound to have missed a couple.

I’ve downloaded Jake’s to give a listen on the train tomorrow.

My biggest issue is that I get through a lot of music and my memory is a piece of sh1t.

In no particular order

The Prodigy: Invaders must die (2009)
Oh Land: Oh Land (2011)
The Eels: The Deconstruction (2018)
Alt-J: An Awesome Wave (2012)
Sleater-Kinney: No Cities to Love (2015)

I have to say the Slater-Kinney album is probably my most listened to album, it ticks the same sort of boxes the exist somewhere between Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the Pixies.


The above has to be my most listened song on that album.

In terms of a rolling decade it is valid. Choosing to make that point to split hairs over 10 months is a bit silly.

I don't think there are hard and fast rules to participating in a music thread to celebrate quality music either. That, and in entertainment releases are quite often considered the following years for awards and what not. Again, your choice to split hairs over 10 months is very very odd.

It went double platinum in 2010, I'm sticking by it. I have a feeling VT will be willing to let this entry wriggle in.

You are quite right. I just don't understand why people have to try to bend the rules all the time. The rules are there for a very good reason.

For the sake of clarity, is it a requirement that the aforesaid album must have been released in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland within the specified date range?

Probably missing something obvious, but my most played in the last two or three years would be Michael Kiwanuka Love And Hate, can't think of anything predating it which I prefer but daresay I will.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

I've bought hardly any albums this decade, unbelievably..... firmly stuck in the past, all modern music is rubbish etc

The only ones that I can think of is "We The Collective" by the Levellers.
