Let's talk about music in the 00's

[michigancat]

I would go as far as to say the '10s are better than all previous decades combined

That's a very fair statement.

What's the best of the best in the 2010s? 

[Dr Rick Daris]

what month of 2012 was the best? probably april, huh?

[pissclams]

what month of 2012 was the best? probably april, huh?

i was going to say May but maybe april, i can understand.  did you like april 7th or the 16th?

[Asteriskhead]

a lot of the major red dirt bands were starting to get popular then, do you guys want to talk about them?

Party Rock

tough call. probably 7th over the 16th. but like i said it could really go either way and in terms of just a single day, i'd honestly put november 11th above them both. the rest of november was absolute crap though and would not even make my top 3 for best months of 2012.

also and pretty OT, but how random was february of that year? i think back to that month more than any of the last five years and just go wtf was music thinking during that time frame?

[pissclams]

looks like i just caught you in a trap b/c both the 7th and the 16th both sucked, smh.

idk, maybe april wasn't that great after all when 11/11 goes best single day of '12 then it really says something.   i think everyone can agree that 11/11 was just a ditr.

[michigancat]

ah, look at the cute 90's nostalgists! I bet you fellas could throw a football a mile back then!

smh and fml but i guess between you and i and the fencepost we'll all just have to agree to disagree, but one thing i know we'll agree on is 8:30pm. no other hour of the day consistenly puts out quality music like like the 8-3-p.

Heard of CCR first then when I was away on an Internship I met a guy from TCU who introduced me to Reckless Kelly, have loved red dirt country ever since(I call it Texas Country tho). Jason Boland and the stragglers  Mickey and the Motorcars  Wade Bowen

Spoon was Metacritic's artist of the decade. Note that Radiohead was "A popular pick for band of the decade, but 2001's Amnesiac is holding them back here."
http://www.metacritic.com/feature/best-music-of-the-decade

I made this list of personal favorites after I read that Metacritic piece, accounting for total output:

Spoon (4 great albums, Metacritic did not include Transference, released in 2010)
The Shins (3 great albums)
The New Pornographers (3 great albums, 1 good debut)
The Arcade Fire (so-so debut few people knew about, 1 legendary album, 1 good follow-up)
The White Stripes (1 good debut, then 2 great albums, then 1 good album, then 1 stinker)
Coldplay (1 good debut, 1 great album, 2 good albums)
Death Cab for Cutie (1 great album, 2 good albums, 2 other albums, plus Gibbard's Postal Service album)
