Years (1. 98. 5- 2. SPIN hit a milestone this year: our 3. To celebrate, we caught up with some of the artists behind our past picks for Album of the Year, held a readers’ poll, reminisced with former staffers, and now, we’ve ranked the 3. Drawing on ballots from more than a dozen contributors, the editors whittled a roster of just under 1,0. Before we get started, some ground rules: To prevent certain artists from having a stranglehold on the countdown (Radiohead and Kanye West come to mind immediately), we decided that no single act could have more than three entries on the list; studio albums were eligible, of course, as were EPs and live albums; compilations qualified only if the songs featured were most closely associated with said collection. Accounting for (and arguing over) 3. Green Day, American Idiot(Reprise, 2. Green Day Mk. II was kicked off in earnest by a concept album that both legitimized the trio’s long- simmering Who infatuation and provided them with a worthy blockbuster of Who’s Next proportions. Like most great concept albums, the singles are some of the worst things on here: The flag- waving . Parquet Courts, Sunbathing Animal(What’s Your Rupture?, 2. In which America’s next great underground rock band has itself a stretch and leans into the light, expanding their wire- taut (and Wire- derived) post- punk ca- chunk in directions both Dylanesque (“Dear Ramona”) and Nuggets- mining (“Ducking and Dodging”). It’s no Faustian bargain for mainstream acceptance, though; the Denton- via- Brooklyn heavies are too busy ripping off Faust (“She’s Rolling”) to engage with such quandaries. Ice Cube, Ameri. KKKa’s Most Wanted(Priority, 1. What happens when the West Coast’s preeminent firebrand joins forces with the East Coast’s premier sonic architects: a middle finger as mission statement, fattened with tightly packed funk rips. Ameri. KKKa’s Most Wanted caught Ice Cube fresh off of his split with N. W. A, trolling his critics (see: “The Nigga Ya Love to Hate”), and basking in a new partnership with Public Enemy’s go- to production team, the Bomb Squad. This here is a dream team- up done right; the kind of fanboy wish fulfillment that should make the knuckleheads behind DC vs. Marvel ashamed of themselves. Gorillaz, Demon Days(Virgin, 2. Cartoons are often unfairly pushed to the kiddy corner, but the animated members of Gorillaz rejected that ignorance with their sophomore album. Tackling depression and the dumbing- down of culture via the De La Soul collab “Feel Good Inc.,” Damon Albarn’s post- Blur supergroup was ready to be taken seriously and, in its own sly way, be serious. Employing gloomy, wonky beats — including an eerie sample from the 1. Dawn of the Dead soundtrack — and right- brained producer extraordinaire Danger Mouse, Albarn proved that his funky art project wasn’t a gimmick, but a genre- blending exploration into personal and societal demons. Various Artists, Total 4(Kompakt, 2. The best of Kompakt Records’ annual roster- spanning compilations, and the one microhouse collection that even music listeners with zero interest in making a pilgrimage to the clubs of Cologne still need in their life. Early 2. 1st- century techno got no more sweepingly lush than J. Best Artist (nominated by the. Best Service Artist Grooves VSTi AU HYBRiD DVDR. Brain scans can help spot the smartest service dogs.

Cookies remember you so we can give you a better service. Dara O Briain introduces a selection of outtakes and best. Cutter attempts to bring down a con artist. Old 9. 7’s, Too Far to Care(Elektra, 1. Imagine if early Lennon- Mc. Cartney crafted song after wondrous song that fell between two warring radio formats, and you have some idea of the scale at which Old 9. Fort Kickass. The opening ignition of hardest- rocking country song ever (“Time Bomb”) and greatest one- night- stand song ever (“Barrier Reef”) alone should explain how they’ve sustained a legion cult for 2. Elektra or the imaginary radio station these would dominate anyway. Not so: Most of the post- rock maestros’ sophomore symphony, . But for Stateside devotees — be they in a dimly lit dorm room, a Hollywood editing suite, or out in the world, admiring everyday wonders — either tongue would do. The lush, all- consuming grandeur of beauties like “Svefn- g- englar” knows no boundaries. Garbage, Version 2. East. West/Warner Bros., 1. Before Kid A changed what electronic- fused alt- rock could do, Trent Reznor wasn’t the only one who could craft a bulletproof album with pretty hate machines. With highlights aplenty from Shirley Manson (“I am a wolf but / I like to wear sheep’s clothing”) and her pet producers’ processed- guitar droids, this very 1. Usher, Looking 4 Myself(RCA, 2. Usher’s seventh LP feeds off its flirtations with EDM and modern pop producers like Swedish House Mafia, Diplo, and will. Lead single “Climax” is the most stunning four minutes of Usher’s career and a true song- of- the- decade contender, but the Luke Steele- featuring title track is Looking 4 Myself at its most definitive: introspective, unexpected, and hurtling headlong into euphoria. The Hold Steady, Separation Sunday(Frenchkiss, 2. A word- drunk sermon also buzzed on more than a few PBRs and carafes of sacramental wine; a concept album- length parable populated by hoodrats and sleazebags, aging scenesters and used- up fringe- dwellers, pushers and prey; a redemption tale that answers Catholic guilt with classic- rock riffs that could powder the empties in any small- town dive. In short: how a resurrection really feels. Tori Amos, Little Earthquakes(Atlantic, 1. In its own way as influential and important as any of the more commercially impactful early- . The singer- songwriter confessional had never felt this confrontational before, or — thanks to Tori’s shockingly successful efforts to weaponize her piano the way Jimmy Page did his guitar — this stadium- ready. The Unicorns, Who Will Cut Our Hair When We’re Gone?(Alien. The ramshackle swan song of a mythical Montreal unit with ties to Arcade Fire and a dozen spinoffs (most notably Islands), this quintessentially aughties quirk- bomb is jammed with squelchy folk, lo- fi pop, deep grooves, and cute lyrics about the sort of ghosts you’d want to eat ice cream with. Also: a plot point in How I Met Your Mother. Tyler, the Creator, Goblin(Odd Future, 2. Welcome- ish proof that the artistic desire to offend isn’t limited to white privilege (though it does seem like a sausage fest). Odd Future’s fearless leader turned the rap game into 4chan here, rhyming skillfully about not just raping pregnant women but accepting blowjobs from Michael Jackson, taking pink Xanies in all- over print panties, and wanting to be the reason all lesbians hate dick. TV on the Radio, Dear Science(Interscope, 2. Seven years later and Barack Obama’s assurances of Hope and promises of Change haven’t been outright erased, but they have eroded a bit. Luckily, a more cautiously optimistic message from the fall of . The synth- finished sheen of opener “Halfway Home” continues to disarm; the mournful ache of “Family Tree” lingers long after the strings and piano; and the low- rumbling allure of “DLZ” hasn’t dulled a bit. As for that “Golden Age” alluded to in the fuzz- funked lead single — we’ve got faith that it’s still comin’ round. Sugar, Copper Blue(Rykodisc, 1. The short- lived Sugar — a power trio fronted by punk icon Bob Mould — crackled like a lit fuse; their debut, Copper Blue, was a collision of chewy pop hooks, clanging noise- rock riffs, and Mould’s throttling vocals. But it’s the weird, ornate details — the creeping psych- pop organ, proggy bridge, and backmasked sounds of “Hoover Dam,” to name a few — that truly distinguish the set. The Books, Thought for Food(Tomlab, 2. In 2. 00. 2, no one handled wordless long- form songwriting with such imagination and eye- twinkling humor as this duo of folktronica experimentalists. Stringing together elegant instrumental melodies with woven- in samples pulled from their extensive library (i. Eat, Read Sleep,” snippets of dialogue pulled from Jean- Luc Godard’s Contempt), Nick Zammuto and Paul de Jong quilted post- rock into an embroidery of fresh patterns and surprisingly vivid shades. The Killers, Hot Fuss(Island/Universal, 2. The neon- lit brilliance of the Killers’ debut album lies not in its static- kissed post- punk riffs or endlessly singable choruses. It’s a distinctly Las Vegas record — native son Brandon Flowers sees through the glitz and glam of Sin City and locks his guylined eyes on the unfulfilling truth underneath the allure, conveying that emptiness with both new- wave flash and weariness. Superchunk, I Hate Music(Merge, 2. Indie- punk stalwarts refuse to compromise DIY ethics, put more than a decade of work into their epoch- defining band, decide in 2. Digable Planets, Blowout Comb(Pendulum, 1. Before igniting the Low End Theory crowd with Shabazz Palaces, this was Ishmael Butler, a Grammy- winning paragon of cool, whose live- bebop backing pre- pimped the butterfly and chopped and screwed Tribe down to Portishead’s gritty pitch the same year that Dummy dropped. Call it the rebirth of unslick, or American trip- hop that didn’t throw the rap out with the bongwater. The Go- Betweens, Tallulah(Beggars Banquet, 1. Robert Forster and Grant Mc. Lennan maybe didn’t think they were crafting anthems when they cobbled together their greatest album, but adding multi- instrumentalist Amanda Brown certainly turned these ten nerdy love songs into something widescreen, adding gnashing violin beneath the vows of “Right Here” and quacking oboe to take the sting from the gin on the swelling classic “Bye Bye Pride.” — DAN WEISS2. Sleater- Kinney, The Hot Rock(Kill Rock Stars, 1. With their urgent, intricate fourth album, Sleater- Kinney sandpapered their punk approach without losing any of their bite. In fact, The Hot Rock’s nods to needling indie, murky blues- rock, and pogo- pop presaged the relentless boundary- smashing that S- K would go on to master. Aerosmith, Pump(Geffen, 1.
