10 best albums of new millenium

Molecules · 10-11-2009, 04:27 PM

it's easier to separate the wheat from the chaff too when most new music is streamable, on Myspaz at the very least. It's like the modern equivalent of a listening booth but you know, lamer.
If i take any new music recommendations seriously they are word of mouth - MB for one and RYM is brilliant, even if the userbase to some degree reflects the opinions of the music press they are quite a discerning bunch.
It is the same old problem though that we all moan about when shopping in the local air hangar/supermarket - too much choiiiice, it's hard work just to find what you went in for

apart from the ones i've not heard (and Arcade Fire

Toxicity is a really good album, but I have to say there's some incredible songs on the Hypnotize/Mesmerize albums. Tho I never could choose a favorite System of a Down album.

I look at them as two parts of a whole, not two albums. As such, it's definitely the pinnacle of their career.

They are a kind of a double-album, I know.
