Best albums (and tracks) of YOUR favourite albums (and tracks) of the ENTIRE NOUGHTIES: 2000-2009 Ballot Poll Nominations + Campaigning Thread

Xiu Xiu "A Promise"

Fuuuuckkkk.... I was sure that was nominated, which is why I didn't myself...

Oh also: The Mountain Goats "We Shall All Be Healed", like every album is there except the best 00s album

I myself would vote Constantines s/t over "Shine A Light", and Fucked Up "Epics In Minutes" over "Hidden World", and I intend to do so

Will you allow write-ins LJ? 'A Promise' cannot be absent.

is there a voting thread with the links to the nomination lists on top?

My list includes only two mainstream albums (Missy "Under Construction", Erykah "Mama's Gun"), only one Solex album, zero Grouper albums-- one Kranky release and it's "Tired Sounds Of...", Life Without Buildings, only one Xiu Xiu album and only one "electronic" album (and it's Max Tundra, of course)

Dupe in tracks:

Fatima Yamaha – What's a Girl to Do
Fatima Yamaha ‎– What's A Girl To Do?

Oh and I am voting for three Canadian albums. The aforementioned two and Destroyer "Your Blues".

If this is the campaigning thread, let me once again state that the best Fucked Up album is "Epics In Minutes", it is also the best Canadian album of this century, and you can hear for yourself and I am tired of saying this over and over again

No voting thread until seandalai creates the voting form, and he's only back from holiday tomorrow!

As I'm such a pushover, I will allow anyone who has not posted to thisthread before today a small handful of 'panic nominations'. fgti bring the first of such. But that only applies if you really didn't see this until now.

I'm out now but will make further edits later and add fgti's choices etc

Lightning Bolt - Dead Cowboy is there twice in tracks (my fault for having nominated it a second time)

The track list has Isolee - Beau mot plage, which was released in 1998.

Also this one:

Thee Madkatt Courtship III - My Life Musik

...which was released in 1999 and was a club hit that year, as discussed upthread.

this is a problem tbh

oh i see it's been resolved sorry

The links to both playlists are in the OP though if you want to get going

Death From Above - Romantic Right
should be Romantic Rights

Gorillaz - Client Eastwood
is a dupe and has a typo too

LCD Soundsystem - 45:33
i would call this an album -- it includes "someone great" and a few other songs -- but it's your choice

The Studio - No Comply
The Studio - Out There
The Studio - West Side
the band's name is Studio

Client Eastwood :'D

I might keep it like that

lol i shouldn't go by memory of ILM thread titles

The Studio - West Coast

ok I moved 45:33 to albums, agree it should be there instead

if ledge wishes to protest he may

I noticed that my fraudulent nomination of Robyn - Dancing on My Own is still on the tracks masterlist. Can that please be replaced by ... Rhythm & Sound - Free For All (Soundstream Remix)?

Albums:

The Good The Bad and The Queen - s/t

(18/30)

hahahahahah oh my god there are so many albums and songs hahahahahah

anyway if you hadn't heard weekend by the zazen boys this it is not your fault dear readers but if you don't vote for it now that you HAVE heard of it......... that is your fault

wait what

a snooze 4 love remix is nom'd? and not the original? was a remix released in 2009 and the original in 2011?

oh shit ok i see what happened, macallan's picks were all the wrong decade and they made the list. i got REAL confused when i saw the xx on hold (yes i am reading it from the bottom like an extremely normal person, what of it)

does anyone still have bluesk's ultramixes by year? i used to listen to the 06 one on repeat to the point where i can't hear some of these songs without hearing the next one from that mp3 following it

have zapped thee macallan 18 year's erroneous nominations

allow me to reiterate that NOMINATIONS ARE CLOSED

unless

And on I playlist.

Sund4r, Evan Parker and Sainkho Namtchylak - Mars Song is from 1996. Zapped. Sorry

Glad all the '00s Silver Jews LPs were nominated. I'd been casually listening to them far more than any other noughties music since certain events in August. At least of two of them are more excellent, as albums, than I have tended to remember. Any support will probably be vote-spliited to death here though, no?

The Toeachizown double up is my fault, sorry all! (Don't know if that means I get another nomination back, but I don't want to create any extra work for imago).

lol i shouldn't go by memory of ILM thread titles

Their first few releases were under The Studio moniker

LCD Soundsystem - 45:33
i would call this an album -- it includes "someone great" and a few other songs -- but it's your choice

well it's a track that was later released on an album with the same name along with other bonus tracks - but otoh it's a 45:33 long track with three distinct sections and also i really don't give a shit.

Sund4r, Evan Parker and Sainkho Namtchylak - Mars Song is from 1996. Zapped. Sorry

Oh wow, oops.

xp can it be on both lists? I'm probably voting for it either way.

can we standardize NSYNC? I'm seeing *NSYNC somewhere near the top of the tracks list and then NSync and NSYNC in the N's.

45:33 is a track and has appeared in at least one tracks poll before iirc (maybe an album one too tho)

does anyone still have bluesk's ultramixes by year? i used to listen to the 06 one on repeat to the point where i can't hear some of these songs without hearing the next one from that mp3 following it

mixcloud has them all! https://www.mixcloud.com/ghostfood/

Has the number of entries per ballot been decided yet? I already started getting my Albums ballot ready.
