This month's Uncut lists their 150 albums of the decade, and in my view while the overall list isn't bad, the top ten is not that great:
1) White Stripes, White Blood Cells
2) Bob Dylan, Love and Theft
3) Wilco, A Ghost is Born (with Yankee Hotel Foxtrot at 35 and Sky Blue Sky at 138)
4) Brian Wilson, Smile
5) The Strokes, This Is It
6) Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, Raising Sand
7) Arcade Fire, Funeral
8) Bob Dylan, Modern Times
9) Ryan Adams, Heartbreaker (with Gold at 38)
10) Fleet Foxes, Fleet Foxes
Radiohead had In Rainbows at 15, Kid A at 25 and Hail To The Thief at 134, while White Stripes albums managed to account for a ludicrous 30th of the entire chart. I mean: I like The White Stripes, but placing that much prominence on them seems absurd. (Uh, and both Raconteurs albums charted as well!)
