Pitchfork's P2k: The Decade in Music

i'm really confused because the chronology keeps jumping is all

nice summary. can you go through and sum up all the active threads now? would help my productivity >9000 ways.

I think the success of the Decemberists, Shins, et al. in the 00s was presaged by late '90s successes like Elliott Smith, Neutral Milk Hotel, and Belle and Sebastian.

xp - hand jobs thread is about hand jobs.

there's also a thread where ppl post pictures of what they look like for jaymc.xls

there are a couple of other threads with the names of TV shows in them that are about those TV shows.

it's kinda lol summarizing a thread dismissively that you've been contributing to

yeah, but sometimes u need some perspective bro

okay, undismissively - hand jobs thread is about hand jobs and oral sex on ladies.

"P2K" still makes me think of this

lol will smith still makes me think of the futility of life

why do all of Whiney's youtubes automatically play?

jus sayin

i like the decemberists they had songs abt pirates b4 it was cool and songs about architects which has never been cool

someone goes in and changes the embed code to read autoplay=yes, i'd assume. evil. evil autoplay.

it's having a some serious Skinnerian effects on me.

im tryna meaningfully engage w/ this thread and the ideas in it btw - thinking its impt to be "thoughtful" and "concerted" in our efforts here but i have no idea wtf any1 means abt anything i feel like yall dont even occupy the same "timespace" that i do

what does mstrkrft and tim hecker sound like to u

carles?

fyi the other day i was at the beach and these kids who had set up near us started singing hilary duff's "wake up" slightly out of tune and i was charmed and overwhelmed - played touch football w/ sum of them afterwards and talked abt green day

I was walkin down the beach and saw a lil kids day camp playin a Daft Punk's "One More Time"

oh and still l8r some1 had brought a "boombox" and was blasting zep - pretty rad imo - this had something to do w/"baLLS" btw

beachballs

sounds kinda kewl but don't know, I kinda think maybe I h8 Hilary her duff, but maybe she should be an "ironic" part of my "personal brand"

do you guys think "freakfolk" bands like CocoRoco will be shunned on p4k list because its "meme capacity" is all time low?

iirc pitchfork always h8ed cocorosie

what happened 2 the band "new weird amrca"? did they break up?

i know because my ex was really into them and used pitchfork hating them as a way of justifying their alrightness

im pretty indifferent to h.duff too was surprised i could recognize the song just from sum chicks singing it so casually esp because i think i read in nyt mag that shared cultural xp was dead except with movies for toddlers and retards

new weird america bought peacoats and dated actresses/voices of a generation iirc

Whine, dude, that is not even correct spelling.

saw a dude in a comets on fire tee that wasnt me this week tho so idk

who wld u guise cast if u could "recast" the wire?

the wire has already been recast as a yuppie cultural touchstone ~~~ it "sold out" by mailing scrners to nyer writers and ppl i went to college with now i cant even talk about it on the internet

I was walkin down the beach and saw a lil kids day camp playin a Daft Punk's "One More Time"

^^ when i worked @ a camp this played all the time on radio disney which was broadcast on the loudspeakers

I don't see what this has to do with katy perry

do u think in the post-Wire memeverse, Mad Men "stans" are like Phishheads trying to find "importance" in their life after "Jer-Bear" died?

hey guys. i've only briefly scanned this thread, but i can tell that you all really love P4k as much as I do.

for the britishers out there, I've made a spotify playlist that features the songs of P4k's decade-defining list so far. 90 songs weren't available, so it isn't comprehensive, but it still reminds us of a great decade for music and a great decade for music writing.

P4k Reflects

Is Mad Men even like the Wire in any way apart from being a TV show?

whiney do u want to borrow my moral orel dvds? fyi the creator of that show - a notorious drunk - really likes the mtn goats and uses their songs to end a couple of emotional devestating episodes

mad men "stans" create their own reality iirc or they get leveled on the internet

Why does a lame Will Smith song always begin when I open this thread now?

I already asked that question, but it definitely bears repeating.

It's the one show where people convince themselves it's the "important" TV show they "have to watch" to "stay relevent." Sporanos invented the model

also "white ppl" love it

ppl just want to understand bro u dont have to despise them for it and ppl need to dream u dont have to h8 them for it

I think the Wire has more balls & testosterone than Mad Men does.

Gukbe, awesome, but you've got the live Twilight Sad track, not the album one

another "question" that might be "relevant" is where some of the family guy music #s will place on this list

xp white ppl also like Mexican food

You have alerted me to the fact there's a live album though!

does mexifood have more testosterone than italafood?

Gukbe, awesome, but you've got the live Twilight Sad track, not the album one

plz try to stay on topic
