Check the dates. The 04 eoy list (wich funeral topped) came after the 00-04 list. It served as the correction.
I agree about Is This It and YHF though. They'll get props, but neither can probably T10.
Edit: If they weren't big fans of Funeral, than I highly doubt Neibhrohood #1 (Tunnels) would have made T10 of their songs list.
No, the decade list was the correction.

Who knows, maybe they've changed their tune, but Funeral definitely dropped percipitously in just 2 months.
I've learned not to get my hopes up with pitchfork. If something is too classic, they'll cut it down to size a bit on their decade end list. Nevermind at #6 of the 90s, Sign o The Times in the 40s of the 80s, and Exile on Main Street at #11 of the 70s, are all signs of pitchfork's taste making.
Quite frankly, the only album currently in AM's top 10 that will make PF's top 10 is Kid A. That said, I don't even think Elephant (which won't make the list) will be really negatively impacted by it, much less albums like YHF and Funeral (which will make the list, just not in top 10 spots.)
