Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Top albums of the 2000s

The last update includes Billboard and the French Rolling Stone. Thanks Harold!

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

I'm stuck on a computer with no excel. Could someone be kind enough to tell me what the current top 10 is?

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Funeral
Kid A
Is This It?
Blueprint
Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Elephant
Whatever People Say I Am, I'm Not
Back to Black
Stankonia
Illinois

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Stankonia drop is sad...

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Updated with Austin Town Hall, Ghostly and The Sun. The top 3 can not be much closer than it is right now. If Funeral had been #13 instead of #3 in the list from Austin Town Hall it would be #3 instead of #1 in total.

Thanks Harold!

Hello! Jay Dee (or J Dilla) seems to be already on AM.net, but he is not accessible in the alphabetic list of artists.
He can be found as "Dee, Jay", which is probably wrong as Dee isn't his surname.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Updated with Rock&Folk.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

New additions this time: Gorilla vs. Bear, Radio Helsinki, Repubblica international and Italian, and Kalporz's national (Italian). Thanks Harold!

Amy Winehouse and Arctic Monkeys ahead of Sufjan Stevens and LCD Soundsystem seems wrong.

It's a tragedy if there ever was one. I blame the poor judgement of the UK music press.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

The British Press does a lot of absurd things...Yankee Hotel Foxtrot at #36. FOR SHAME!

While I would agree that it is absurd that YHF is only #36 on the U.K. list, the fact is, Jonathon, that even if YHF's U.K. ranking was #4 ... it would STILL be #4 overall, because The Big Three are The Big Three across the board. You undoubtedly think YHF is better than The Big Three, which is a valid opinion, but considering their dominance, it's a considerable accomplishment for any album to be firmly ensconced right behind them, and that's exactly where YHF is. So to continue harping that it's underrated is, itself, a bit absurd at this point. Sorry.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Interestingly enough, only when ALL British critics would have had YHF as their #1 it would have beaten "Is This It". Even just 1 #2 spot would mean a tie.

Harold, while your point has validity on the decade end lists, when factored into the entirety of acclaimedmusic, it falls apart a bit.

As far as I understand, these points are factored into overall points, which determines all time rankings. So while, yes YHF would still be #4 and it won't be any higher than that in any territory (though it has been as high as 3 in the USA) a higher UK ranking would have secured a top 100 of all time ranking for YHF last update, which is imo a pretty huge milestone for an album.

So yeah, on a decade end level, it's ridiculous. But in the wider scope of Acclaimedmusic, it has ramifications.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Updated with Under the Radar. Thanks Harold!

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Though I have some misgivings about the order, 8 of the albums in the top 10 are dyed in the wool, 5 star classics.

Arctic Monkeys are kind of a joke though. They're like the Bush to Franz Ferdinand's Nirvana. I'm very disappointed they're in the top 10. This album should be like 75.

The British press in particular has ducked behind one of the most safe, trend-following albums of the decade, at the expense of much more creative offerings that are lingering in the bottom reaches of the lists.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Can someone post the top 100 albums of the spreadsheet? My excel isnt working that well, and id like to see the results of the last update.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Panda Bear's Person Pitch is really number 33??

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Yeah, the #1 spot from Gorilla vs. Bear moved them up 10 spots. Bit of a shame since #43 was already a little too high for PB, imo.

Can't believe winehouse's is this decade top female album. No way! Albums by M.I.A., PJ Harvey, Joanna Newsom, Bjork, Cat Power are much much better. BTB is great, is solid, but no way top female of the decade, even "The Reminder" by Feist should be ahead of it, even Extraordinary Machine by Fiona and that album is nowhere to be seen inside AM top 200 albums of this decade.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

New years eve means business as usual at AM. The EOD sheet has been updated with BET and American Songwriter. Thanks Harold!

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

sorry again.but excel doesnt work in my computer. can someone post the top 100 of the spreadsheet?

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

La Vanguardia and Digg.

RADIOHEADSMAN, of course the top 100 can be shown here as well, but it will be a lot of top 100s if it is posted with every update. I recommend downloading the free Excel Viewer program. Let me know if this is any problem.

Not All...

lists are included in the spreadsheet, I gather? I know there usually are more albums lists, but the songs spreadsheet look pretty sparse, in terms of number of lists.

Thanks to all who work on it- thanks for the tip on downloading the Free Viewer program, Henrik.

Re: Not All...

Is This It falls from first to third! Elephant above The Blueprint (although both are great). Monkeys now being ahead of OutKast is lame, but whatever, good update.

Re: Not All...

Decades lists have been quite harsh to Merriweather, it's a lot better than the tripe like ARctic Monkeys and Amy Winehouse. The British critics have really failed ths decade.

Re: Not All...

Id like to believe that its just because MPP is not as old as the others. And that in the near future theyll be on more lists.

Re: Not All...

RADIOHEADSMAN

To be fair, the top album of 1999, The Soft Bulletin, is only 20 or 21 of the 90s.

Re: Not All...

A new update includes musicOMH, Heineken (international and Spanish) and Stylus, while Gorilla vs. Bear has been removed (one writer only).

Re: Not All...

How come melophobe's lists werent added to the spreadsheet??

Re: Not All...

Genre lists from a non-genre source.

Re: Not All...

Updated with Jenesaispop. Thanks Harold!

Re: Not All...

Updated with Jenesaispop. Thanks Harold!


And Adresseavisen, as well!

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

In the spreadsheet is La Casa Azul and Casa Azul, La.

This is the same album: "La revolución sexual"

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

In the spreadsheet appears twice:

Asa - Loppuasukas
Horsepower Productions - In Fine Style
Shellac - 1000 Hurts

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Thanks for the catches, Otis! I'll make the corrections.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Actually, it's two different albums...

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

Sorry, sorry. La Casa Azul: two differents albums.

What Of...

those 200-some albums on that initial Paste list? Not that it's a big deal, just wondering.

Are there some eligible lists that haven't been added to the spreadsheet?

So, it looks like Amy Winehouse hands down has the most acclaimed female album of the decade. It is a solid work.

Good work, AM'ers. :)

Re: What Of...

JR

We (I) decided the list was too sprawling and too redundant to the existing top 50 list to be worth adding. The Rock's Back Pages list actually IS a list, with all 176 albums ranked; this one just seemed like "a bunch of albums that we liked."

JR
Are there some eligible lists that haven't been added to the spreadsheet?


Not as far as I know, at least among all the ones that have been identified in the forum.

Re: What Of...

Rhapsody additionalized.

Re: What Of...

Updated with MSN.COM and The Line of Best Fit.

Thanks Harold!

Re: What Of...

Kitsap Sun and Creative Loafing.

Re: What Of...

These also appear twice in the spreadsheet:

Eels- Daisies of the Galaxy
PMMP- Kovemmat Kädet
The Thorns- The Thorns
Violadores del Verso- Vivir para contarlo

Re: What Of...

The list from Treble has been included. Thanks, Harold!

Illinois in the top 5 for the first time I think.

Re: What Of...

Sufjan Stevens in the T5 and Arctic Monkeys outside the T10! What an incredible update. Now if Sound of Silver and Stankonia can overtake Back to Black than all will be right with the world.

Re: What Of...

S**t excel wont work on my computer. Can someone Post the top 100 of the spreadsheet?

Re: What Of...

Thanks, Jonathon.

With the addition of the DoA list, #'s 98-100 will slip out of the top 100 to make room for:

Jay Dee, Donuts
Spoon, Girls Can Tell
Wolf Parade, Apologies to the Queen Mary

What's that ? Joanna's phone number?

Re: What Of...

The version with Delusions of Adequacy is uploaded. Thanks for the quick update, Harold.

Overall | USA Rank | UK Rank | International Rank | Artist | Album | Point total


Nice to see that Yankee Hotel Foxtrot might at least become #2 with US/ Canada critics. It's gone from barely above Is This It, and 85 points below Funeral, to nearly 100 points over Is This It and only 40 below Funeral in the past few days.

Re: What Of...

Updated with Indie for Bunnies. Thanks Harold!

Re: What Of...

Sufjan Stevens in the T5 and Arctic Monkeys outside the T10! What an incredible update. Now if Sound of Silver and Stankonia can overtake Back to Black than all will be right with the world.


...And the arctics are back in and Sufjan's back out =[

Re: What Of...

Really? 'Cause according to the spreadhseet that I opened up, Arctic Monkeys are at 11th and LCD Soundsystem is at 10th. Shame about Sufjan though.

Re: What Of...

Sorry, my bad. More good news is that Is This It is now a distant third, and the battle for top dog is only between two now.

Re: What Of...

I really hope that AMG updates it's 00s album ratings soon.

It's kind of silly that only 4 albums in the top 10 have 5 stars!

I also hope they do that. And i bet they will overlook some records, there are a bunch of masterpieces of other decades, that are not rated a 5 yet. Albums like Kate Bush's Hounds Of Love and even The Flaming Lip's Soft Bulletin that they named one of the best of the 90's (or the best i don't remember very well) are still rated 4.5

When they started doing the Allmusic loves 19xx, i was glad cause some albums had their ratings upgraded, but they already made a retrospective of the 00's and no one was upgrade. Each critic is now releasing a list of their top 100 albums, since it's made by only one music critic i guess AM won't consider. The first list was by Andy Kellman, and he placed Erykah's New Amerykah at the top spot, again no one was upgraded.

I hope that after this, they pick the records and finally upgrade them. Right now they could start upgrading some albums that are rated 4 stars to 4.5 (they already did that to Lady GaGa, s why not?) like Radiohead's Kid A, or Sufjan Stevens's illinoise or Antony's I Am A Bird Now, there's a bunch of records that should be a 4.5 by now, at least until they upgrade the others (and even some of the 4 star records) to 5 stars.

Re: What Of...

Updated with Resident Advisor. After a long time at #2 or #3, Kid A is now #1 again.

Thanks Harold!

I love that the #1 album of the decade isn't going to be decided until the very last list is in. Certainly a contrast to the EOY spreadsheet!

Re: What Of...

Updated with Slant. Thanks Harold!

Re: What Of...

Harold has included the now-available extended list (250 albums) from Slant.

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

uh-oh, tiny mixtapes... looks like we got an original list on our hands...

Re: Top albums of the 2000s spreadsheet - update thread 2

I will be unhappy to see Think Tank possibly slipping in the ranks at the next update. I do think it's the best thing Damon has done this decade by quite the long shot. As of the last update, it was still ranked higher than Demon Days, which is how I feel it should be.
