I was saying that indies were up on those records. You guys should stick to gchat for stuff like this.

Jordan grow a little self awareness with your nerdy year end list baseball stats tendency.

i think j0rdan is more crippingly self-aware than anyone on ilx save myself and markers

url sweatshirt (Whiney G. Weingarten), Sunday, 30 January 2011 19:14 (thirteen years ago) link

i think that 'carter II' is flimsiest of all of these because wayne's critical profile in that period became pretty fluid between all the mixtapes & what not

dream & clipse are pretty inarguable tho

let me just say shame on a Pitchfork for including 3 of Brian Eno's awful pop albums in their top albums of the '70s list (and the David Byrne collaboration in their '80s list) when Music for Airports and On Land and Thursday Afternoon are on a whole 'nother level. and no fucking way does Another Green World deserve their 9.8 rating.

let me also say I HATE DRAMA & I don't care who started it, god.

whiney, can you tell us who is and isn't an indie dude? I think more people would like to participate in this thread, but they are concerned about not doing it right.

sara, indie dudes (self-indentified or otherwise) can post all over this thread. I'm just saying it's not the thread to post about Yo La Tengo

if every record was instantly endorsed as a classic, wouldn't that solve the problem?

The 11th Symphony is decent film music disguised as Soviet agitprop. Not a bad work by any means, but it lacks the tragic heft of his less populist pieces. I like my Shosty either morbidly despairing or caustically mocking the powers-that-be, head-on, so I tend to gravitate towards his later material. Anyway, in keeping with the thread's premise, I do agree that the 4th is a better work than the 5th (I may even prefer the 1st, overall) but it doesn't top the 10th.
