instantly disregarded, the xx is absolute trash garbage. every single song sounds the fucking same and the vocals are so uninspired and boring

At least they got 1998 correct

I know this was a bad a thread and I'm a worse person for reading it but like it makes for good hate reading. y'know things aren't amazingly better hear but the Beetles worship alone is fucking annoying. I don't even hate the Beetles I just can't stand people who think they're literally the best band ever.

Radiohead consistently takes the top spot when /mu/ has polls about finding the best albums ever.

I counted 35 albums on there that I like.

Am I 17.5% pleb or is reddit 17.5% patrician?

>Kid A is brilliant, but it's difficult music (ie. highly dissonant, oddly structured, avant-garde ect.). While I think it's the highlight of 2000, it's also easy to understand if it's not universally embraced

I always imagine the ppl who go on the popular reddit boards to be the type of people who apologize right before they insult you and then wait for their friends to back them up in agreement

don't get me wrong reddits subreddits for drugs are excellent
but reading these comments make me gag

don't waste your time he/she will just call it weird for the sake of being weird.

I don't remember dissonance in the album besides the national anthem at times

could be considered so for its genre(s)/sphere of music

Are you denying that kid a is not very accessible?

Kid A was number one on the charts in 6 different countries anon.
>>
>>70119537
i'd say it's rather inaccessible compared to the other albums they have up there from that year (eminem, coldplay, and modest mouse). as far as popular music goes its definitely weird
>>
>>70119354
That's because they deserve it
>>
>>70119680
So, when reddit has the same exact taste as /mu/ in relation to a certain band reddit's being tasteless whereas we're the true patricians who understand Thom Yorke's genius, basically.

The only fairly inaccessible Radiohead albums are TKOL and some tracks from HTTT.

>>70119870
Eh I'd say Kid A is way more inaccessible than TKOL relatively speaking

no.

there was no criticism or critique on why the albums deserved "best" of their respective year, and DEFINITELY no lasting impact on genres or music as a whole (which some of the losing albums had significantly more)

Like 66 should have gone to Blonde on Blonde, that album is a cornerstone of modern rock music and lyricism, but lost to hands down one of the worst Beatles albums of all time, or '71 when "What's Going On" (a culmination of Motown and R&B/Soul that managed to push outside of the black community and into the mainstream) lost to Led Zeppelin, or 89 when Paul's Botique (the album that legitimized the art of sampling in hip-hop, and without it we wouldn't have 90% of hip-hop acts as we know it today) lost to the fucking PIXIES of all people.

or again in '95 when Smashing Pumpkins beat out one of the literal best selling and critically acclaimed albums of all time, or how NMH beat Outkast in '98, or White Stripes beating Jay-Z in 2003.

It's obvious they didn't put much thought into the nominated albums, just a giant circlejerk of /mu/core runoff and standard commercial pleb acts thrown to the masses to vote on.

Don't necessarily disagree, but explain.

Wait

Are we seriously acting like the Pixies didn't used to be great here now?

I also don't really think that believing ITAOS is better than Aquemini is really egregious or anything either

between that one and Highway 61 revisited, it pushed Dylan out of the protest driven folk artist that he painted himself into with earlier work.

Blonde on Blonde was a "honing" of what he set out to do with "Bringing it All Back Home" and "Highway 61 Revisited". The songwriting was at it's peak, the instrumentation was extremely tight and precise (thanks to having a dedicated set of studio musicians which included The Band and a handful of other studio musicians that were rivaled only by The Wrecking Crew).

That album was a culmination, and most likely the pinnacle of Dylan's career.
>>
>>70120146
i'm not--doolittle is a great album but not a massively influential cornerstone of modern music deserving a "best of"

also:
>>70120362
>>
>>70120146
The Pixies aren't a "bad" band, but given how Surfer Rosa is widely considered their best work, AND the competition it had in the same year with Paul's Boutique, Disintegration, 3 Feet High And Rising, and Pretty Hate Machine, it's kinda hard to claim that it was the best choice for it's year.

Wait... Is this it came out 16 years ago...?
