Forums - General Discussion - It's 2009... What's your favorite album of the decade?

The Postal Service-Give Up (2003)
Broken Social Scene-You Forgot It In People (2003)
Frou Frou-Let Go (2002)
Metric-Grow Up and Blow Away (2002)
Gym Class Heroes-Papercut Chronicles (2005)
Vampire Weekend-Vampire Weekend (2008)
TV on the Radio-Dear Science (2008)

Probably a few more but if I didn't think of them right away maybe they aren't really that great. And if you're familiar with the shitty popular version of GCH, that album is NOTHING like their current poppy top 40 stuff. It's good, dark, intelligent stuff.



Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.
