Another Arcade Fire fan? Nice. Funeral is probably my favorite album from the last 10 years as well.

The only thing mentioning more than one Arcade Fire, Sigur Ros and Silversun Pickup album in the same post shows is that you really have no clue at just how much great stuff has come out of this decade.

To be honest most of the music that has come out of this decade doesn't interest me whatsoever.

Eh? That's kinda sad for some reason.

I've hardly listened to any new stuff for the past couple of years.

Not because there's nothing good, but because it's becoming harder & harder to find. Even the internet has become awash with awful trends & gimmicks and here today gone tomorrow crap with no appeal whatsoever. Quite frankly i'm bored of slogging through 30 odd albums in the hope I find one good one.

From now on it's only stuff with a proven track record or stuff that's held up against the test of time for me. i don't have any interest in being first to find something anymore.
If it's any good it'll still be good in a few years time as well.

Most music this decade is either over-hyped, trendy sh!t or bands that are too pretentious and self-important for their own good (65daysofstatic and Sunn0))) i'm looking at you). I know there's tons of great bands out there that i haven't come across, but jesus christ there's a ton of sh!t to wade through.

My top 10 list is my personal top 10 of the decade, not THE definitive top 10. They're the 10 albums which i have enjoyed listening to the most and i have great memories attached to them,

So don't you think its a little unfair to call most music of this decade overhyped tripe when you just admitted you've only heard of a small portion that's been released? I have no problem at all finding new music that I enjoy, it really isn't that hard to dig through a small pile of shit when there are some real gems buried in the center.
