Ol’ Qwerty Bastard

before anyone gets their panties in a bunch, this thread is just for speculating, brain storming, and having fun talking about the past decade in music. of course we still have 2018 and 2019 left but i think we're far enough in that was start to discuss some of our favourites, and even some albums that we anticipate will be regarded as classics. i'm snowed in again and i have a lot of time on my hands ok?

anyway, i picked 25. placed them in an order but i don't know that there's any i prefer over the others mentioned, all just phenomenal albums imo.

i think it's incredibly difficult to assemble a list for this and will only get harder once the decade is actually over, but this is like a rough draft of sorts.

1. Ceremony - The L Shaped Man (2015)
2. Converge - All We Love We Leave Behind (2012)
3. Cloud Nothings - Attack On Memory (2012)
4. Death Grips - Exmilitary (2011)
5. La Dispute - Wildlife (2011)
6. AJJ - Knife Man (2011)
7. El-P - Cancer 4 Cure (2012)
8. Deafheaven - Sunbather (2013)
9. Carly Rae Jepsen - Emotion (2015)
10. Title Fight - Hyperview (2015)
11. Coffinworm - IV.I.VIII (2014)
12. The Front Bottoms - The Front Bottoms (2011)
13. Milo - So the Flies Don't Come (2015)
14. Ghostbath - Moonlover (2015)
15. Liturgy - Aesthetica (2011)
16. Gridlink - Longhena (2014)
17. Gaza - No Absolutes in Human Suffering (2012)
18. Sufjan Stevens - Carrie & Lowell (2015)
19. Danny Brown - XXX (2011)/Atrocity Exhibition (2016) (XXX was always my favourite, but lately thinking AE might be more deserving of the spot)
20. Run the Jewels - Run the Jewels 2 (2015)
21. Forteresse - Theme pour la rebellion
22. Xiu Xiu - Plays the Music of Twin Peaks (2016)
23. The Tallest Man On Earth - The Wild Hunt (2010)
24. Days n' Daze - Rogue Taxidermy (2013)
25. Joyce Manor - Joyce Manor (2011)


didn't realize how rad of a year 2011 was until i put this together.
