^Good list I was tempted to pick Wowee Zowee myself but decided Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot was just better.

Nice to see another 'The Argument' on a list. Quite possibly my favourite Fugazi album.

It is definitely their most melodic and most dynamic. I found their other albums quite hard to get into but The Argument I pretty much enjoy completely.

Sweet sweet list except for Oasis

but anyway nice taste.

I think you're misinterpreting that statement. He's referring to single-artist compilations (such as a best of release) being ok to include, versus multi-artist compilations.

TheCunningStunt · 04-19-2010, 10:40 AM

Hmm, maybe. I've read other's lists and they've said that the one artist per year rule limited them, so they must've interpreted it as well. Reading it again that makes sense

I'm pretty sure some people have made their list with a self-imposed rule of only one album per artist...no problem with that. But IMO, a favorite albums list should be just that.

~~James~~ · 04-19-2010, 11:01 AM

I used that rule I only used one Belle And Sebastian album when I could have used three but it's more interesting to only use one of each artist.

Yeah, it definitely shows others a greater variety, that's for sure.
