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.

Cate Le Bon

(in large part based on live performances)(Drinks an unnecessary diversion, much as I love both of them)(new album announced today)

and then:

Ty Segall
Susanne Sundfør
Jane Weaver

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.
