I don't really know what I was saying there. Thursday night is drinking night for me so just disregard everything.

I'm not even going to take the time to articulate how idiotic I think Poochfuck's list is. What REALLY bothered me about it was how they decided to head each selection with a picture of the artist instead of, y'know, maybe the album art or something.

Like we need your help with killing the traditional record sleeve, assholes.

That's a really interesting observation. I didn't even notice that but now that you pointed it out I can't help but agree.

They said Washed Outs albums was best new music and I have yet to see any other site agree. It still didn't make top 50. It was a decent album but top new music? ehh... Another observation is the lack of Active Child anywhere. This was a great damn album.

Posted by Pea on Dec 16, 2011, 11:37am

They didn't score Active Child into the 8's so there shouldn't be any surprise with that one.

Just bitching about it in general, Pea. That album got me through testing.

As much as I like the New Pornos, I only wanted to see Neko Case during every song.

Fixed.

I liked the Destroyer album a lot and I was surprised it was #2 on pitchhfork's list.

1) Streethawk: A Seduction
2) City of Daughters
3) Destroyer's Rubies
4) Kaputt
5) Thief
6) Your Blues
7) This Night
8) Trouble in Dreams

I think i agree with this although the gap between 1 and 2 is fairly significant

Alright so I'm going to throw it out there, whats with the lack of Gaga on all these lists? Is it not hip to like her anymore? She made a great fuckin pop record this year.

And who the hell is Real Estate? Does anyone like them? I had honestly never heard of them until they started showing up at the top of all these lists. Gave them a couple listens and they are awful.

ugh, music critics are the WORST

Posted by Pea on Dec 17, 2011, 3:47am

Real Estate blows goats. Gaga rules.

Problem?

That looks a lot like a peacoat. I'd be wary Pea!

I agree, Real Estate is the most boring shit

Posted by kymess_jr on Dec 17, 2011, 3:30pm

Since Real Estate has been showing up on so many lists, I thought I should give them a try too. I don't hate it but they definitely seem to be the most underwhelming "best" album I've listened to so far.

Posted by Cbats on Dec 17, 2011, 3:32pm

Real Estate's in my top ten of the year. At first I just found it pleasant but the more I listened to it the more I heard new things. Their first album is pretty boring but this one is full of great hooks and stellar guitar work. It's the perfect lazy sunday album

Posted by stamper on Dec 18, 2011, 6:45pm

i like 'em. and i think this album is pretty damn solid.

I like popmatters a lot for the most part, but I'm ambivalent about this list. Maybe I'm just bored of seeing the same names over and over.
