Album:
To carry over from last week's feature , I will now make available albums 10-1 from the Best 20 Albums Released Since 1970 list. Hope you all had a good weekend, and look out for the return of Songs of the Week on Tuesday.
20 best albums of the last 40 years (10-1)
10. Kid A - Radiohead (Pound for pound, the only Radiohead album worth its weight in whatever precious metal you choose.)
9. IV - Led Zeppelin (Need I say more?)
8. The Lonesome, Crowded West - Modest Mouse (The first Mouse album I fell in love with - keep reading, it wasn't the last one either.)
7. Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd (Take your pick, but this is the cream of the 70s crop.)
6. London Calling - The Clash (I listened to this album, almost to the point of exclusion, for about 3 years. It was essential in 79, it was essential in 9th grade, and it will continue to be essential, well into the future.)
5. Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven - Godspeed You! Black Emperor (Oh, Godspeed , how I miss thee...)
4. In The Aeroplane Over the Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel (As Beyonce might say, irreplaceable.)
3. If You're Feeling Sinister - Belle and Sebastian
2. The Moon & Antarctica - Modest Mouse (When I wanted to get away, I just went for a 2 am drive and pretended like I owned the city. Isaac Brock & Co. took it one step further and owned both a continent and a celestial body!)
1. The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place - Explosions In The Sky (My favorite album of all time - but you already knew that.)
I hope you all enjoy the albums, and please feel free to take Adam Lazarra's advice and tell all your friends! Oh, and go Rays.

haha nice beyonce reference to back up your choosing of Neutral Milk Hotel. you have the best modest mouse albums on there too. i first fell in love with The Moon and Antarctica and then got Lonesome, Crowded West immediately after. both offer really different sounds. I never got into their most recent release though. oh, and lol about the TBS reference at the end!
