Top 10 8 of 2000-2009
Everybody has been posting their lists of the decade… especially music. Here’s my list of the best albums of 2000-2009. I couldn’t even find ten that were consistently good, actually. *frown*
In no particular order:
- Styles of Beyond: Megadef
- Osdorp Posse: Tegenstrijd
- Ugly Duckling: Taste the Secret
- The Donnas: Bitchin
- Northern State: Can I keep this pen?
- Le Tigre: This Island
- 1200 Techniques: Consistency theory
- ‘t Hof van Commerce: Ezoa en niet anders
Artists that should have released albums that would be in this list, but didn’t:
- Rakim (Wat een slecht album. Rakim had dat natuurlijk gewoon met Seda en DJ Daan moeten opnemen…)
- Beastie Boys
- Clawfinger
- IAM
- Public Enemy
Honorable mentions:
- Jawat (one of the few Dutch rappers that is any good, now that the OP is gone)
- Duo Kie, Triple XXX, Keyo, Jefe de la M, Arma Blanca (Spanish rap)
- Svinkels (French rap)
- Massilia Sound System
- Nitro Microphone Underground (would be in the list, but I’m not sure if “Colaboraciones vol 1″ is a real album…)
- Jurassic 5
- Hammerfall
- Blind Guardian
But overall, I discovered *many* more pre-2000 albums (and often pre-1990) that were much better than most of what I heard in the 2000s. I guess my musical taste is firmly grounded in the 80s. But then again we *knew* that… :-)
