Voted for option B, but reading the arguments for A, especially the fact that a big decade poll is coming along soon, makes me fine for both options.

Gillingham

Fun idea! [EDIT. Too late, obviously. Don't need to count my points, but didn't see results, so looking forward to comparing them myself.] 1) Number of Kanye West albums in the top 100* UNDER 5 chips 2) Artist with the top placing album* LANA DEL REY 5 chips 3) Placement of Car Seat Headrest’s Teens...

- Electronic music is a bit overlooked too, delivering consistently during the decade, especially Four Tet, Andy Stott, John Talabot, Blanck Mass/Fuck Buttons, Moderat, Burial and Jon Hopkins, but also some great ambient records.

Guess I'll be the only one to put Japanese band Qujaku's selftitled album in their list, let alone top 20.
It is on my 'must hear before making a list' list.

That's great! That album and band deserve all the attention they can get.
Let me know what you think about it.

I can only see 1989 as the release year for this from various sources. Do you have a source that says it is from 1988?

No, you're completely right. My mistake.

28 Arcade Fire So, will Otisredding rank Otis Redding higher than ArcadeFire ranked Arcade Fire ? My list is pretty boring.

A very simple test is to check if you can name at least ten of an artist's song titles by head without cheating. If you can't name ten that artist probably shouldn't be too high on your list. Have to disagree here. Yes, I could probably name 10 Autechre songs by head without any problem (although t...

Fantastic that Low is doing so well. Quite unexpected. They have released so much good music over the years. And Double Negative is definitely a great and surprising effort, very consistent too.

Gillingham

I nominate The Limiñanas - Shadow People

That is a year 2000 release. 'Axxess & Ace' was released in 1999 and is also a very fine album, if not quite as good.

Not sure why I missed that, thanks!
Haven't heard Axxess & Ace yet though.
