The Bloc Party and Franz were pretty average if you ask me. Nobody liked the new Sigur Ros. This was like the only album they put out that I actually liked. Go figure! |

Bit of an odd list, I agree the Franz album is nothing special. |

I see The Go! Team album is in there... Don't you just love it when lists include albums that where released the previous year and are only just getting popular attention? |

Well, in fairness, The Go! Team album wasn't released in the U.S. until this year, so at least it has some legitimate claim to be on a 2005 list in an American magazine. Not like 2002, when SPIN named WHITE BLOOD CELLS album of the year even though it clearly came out in 2001. |

I remember them putting White Stripes at around #38 or something ridiculiously low like that and they used they reissue of that album to their advantage and placed it at #1. Fools!!!!!!! |

Henrik, Metacritic has the top ten on this list on its 2005 page as SPIN's top ten, so I assume this is their top 40 as it appears in the magazine. |
