Hooray!!! for the poll, can we possibly not call it "the noughties" though? It is a word I hoped never to hear again, makes me feel queasy it's so twee.

― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Tuesday, September 3, 2019 1:08 PM (yesterday) bookmarkflaglink

I like "noughties" fine, It's "aughts" I can't stand.

dorsalstop, Wednesday, 4 September 2019 11:45 (four years ago) link

"The 00s" is much better than either

i propose pronouncing "00s" as "oohs"

ufo, Wednesday, 4 September 2019 12:17 (four years ago) link

frogbs now reminding me of an all-time Zeroes track

TRACK

Deluge Grander - Inaugural Bash

7/30

imago, Wednesday, 4 September 2019 12:35 (four years ago) link

I think we should just call the decade "The '80s Pt. 2"

normal fucking rockman (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 4 September 2019 12:46 (four years ago) link

that would be a much better fit for this decade!

imago, Wednesday, 4 September 2019 12:52 (four years ago) link

Can I request a ruling on whether Boredoms - Vision Creation Newsun is eligible as an '00s release?

Gavin, Leeds, Wednesday, 4 September 2019 13:08 (four years ago) link

I'd say it's eligible. The release outside of Japan was in 2000. P4K included it in its '200 Best Albums of the 2000s' list.

― Le Bateau Ivre

Beautiful album, but it came out in 2012.

kitchen person, Wednesday, 4 September 2019 13:36 (four years ago) link

Also, just noticed Robyn's Dancing On My Own on the Spotify playlist which was a 2010 release.

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Wednesday, 4 September 2019 14:18 (four years ago) link

ok so i can wrap my head around the albums, but singles might be too fucking hard guys

normal fucking rockman (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 4 September 2019 14:19 (four years ago) link

how am i supposed to pick just one bubba sparxx song?

normal fucking rockman (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 4 September 2019 14:20 (four years ago) link

Albums
The Clientele - The Violet Hour

that's not my post, Wednesday, 4 September 2019 15:09 (four years ago) link

Can we stick with just the one Deerhoof album to avoid vote-splitting? They had one of the best runs of the decade, and I couldn't decide between around 4 of their albums.
