zxcvbnm098 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Gotta say the McCartney is growing on me. Certainly his best in some time. Not sure it's in the top 10, but he's a Beatle and still trying. I also dig the National (#8) and the Lorde album (#7) and Laura Marling (#20). Still going though the list...

Everything else, meh. Wow...how did you have time to listen to all 50? I like many of the ones I've heard (Neko Case, Daft Punk, Arcade Fire and a few others) but most of them I haven't heard so I'll reserve judgement. Yamaha CK88, Arturia Keylab 61 MkII, Moog Sub 37, Yamaha U1 Upright, Casio CT-S500, Mac Logic/Mainstage, iPad Camelot, Spacestation V.3, QSC K10.2, JBL EON One Compact www.stickmanor.com There's a thin white line between fear and fury - Stickman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridog6996 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I mean, it's been a while since Rolling Stone was considered the epitome of taste, but the Chvrches, My Bloody Valentine, Danny Brown, and Artic Monkeys albums are all pretty good. There are certain albums on the list that I think were included mainly based on those artists' past glories, which is frequently the case with lists like this.

NewImprov Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 They probably put Kanye at #2 just to piss him off. Turn up the speaker Hop, flop, squawk It's a keeper -Captain Beefheart, Ice Cream for Crow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like many of the ones I've heard (Neko Case, Daft Punk, Arcade Fire and a few others) but most of them I haven't heard so I'll reserve judgement. I've listened to over 1400 artists this year. As far as this list, I've obviously skipped over what I know is clearly not my cuppa. But the records on this list that I have heard are LCD at best. The exception probably being the Daft Punk. Every year I post my own Best of 2013. Currently I'm whittling down a list of about 80 records (and that doesn't include Free EPs and beattapes).

Tonysounds Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I can't be bothered. Hitting "Play" does NOT constitute live performance. -Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Benhamou Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Arctic Monkeys AM at #9 is one of the best albums I've heard in years. Straight up rock/punk with hip-hop-ish production and seedy after midnight lyrics of lust and desire. Never thought I would become a fan but after 2 listens I was completely seduced.

mate stubb Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 If Kanye is at #2, no need for me to peruse the list. [video:youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRckgn36lzY Moe --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pipe music into my ear while doing my day job. It's the only thing that keeps me sane.
