All the great Belle and Sebastian songs out there and they went with “I Want the World to Stop”??

I hate lists like these. I have very polarizing reactions to indie music. When a few good songs are placed next to 10 Beach House, 15 Arcade Fire and 12 Tame Impala songs (for example) I have to burn the list.

and the YLT song they pick is the intentionally warmed-over cure cover

It's hilarious that Pitchfork pretends to be woke, yet still unconditionally praises the band that wrote 'Cause I'm a Man'.

I don’t much care for it but isn’t this song written in character?

This selection is real depressing. “Oh!” is great fun though.

I love Sebadoh, but lmao at the thought of 'Ocean' being a better song than Lana's 'Video Games'. There's an ocean between the two.

it's not actually misogynistic, it's just in the persona of a misogynist, meant as commentary is a poor excuse that is seldom trotted out for anyone other than (white) rock artists

(black) rap artists use this "excuse" way more.

Never heard the Tame Impala song, but the lyrics seem more like self- loathing than amy hatred of women.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Just for the record, I'm not woke, and no artist owes me any excuse for the content of their art.

When I become quick to judge and label people I don't know at all,I hope I have the courage to blow my brains out.
