I feel like this isn't a great way to judge the decade. If I try to think of artists who were consistently great through the whole 70s or 90s I would think of one or two for each - and my favourite artists of all time were at their peaks then. For this decade, I only can think of Julia Holter, everyone else started too late, tailed off at the end or simply didn't release enough music.

This had to have been a more lively topic in the days when most artists released an album a year or so. You could have a more dazzling track record.

(I know, there are exceptions I like who still maintain that pace)

I agree, I chose artists who have most affected me during that time, not some quantum of achievement or untarnished greatness.

Jane Weaver has made 3 great albums the second half of the decade but I wasn't into the first 3 between 2010 and 2013.
