Kid A is the best Radiohead album (which by the transitive property, makes it the best album). I can't see a UPS commercial without chuckling that the music is by the Postal Service. And thanks to you, yes, I do carry a copy of Deadwing around with me at all times. Great list, though I too reject the awesome power of Wolfmother.

I guess this list means I finally have to go out and buy Deadwing, which I'm reluctant to do since In Absentia really put me off for some reason. Respect the Beard!

So much Boy Least Likely To hatred ... who knew? The Feeling are an English pop band, straight up, no frills. Just catchy songs with tight harmonies. Spock’s Beard are not worthy of laughter!

I'd rather not post a second Best 13 of the Decade list (it took me about a week to decide on them and write it); how about something slightly different? Best songs of the decade? Best artists? Something else? Add your Top 13 to the top13albums.com website, and then Spinning Platters will be the taste-makers of the oughts. Yeah, you did once love Boy Least Likely To.

I am excited to make my own list, though it's going to take FOREVER. How long did it take you? And am I allowed to post mine on here too? Anyway, what I really wanted to say is I couldn't agree with you less about The Boy Least Likely To. I find them cringe-worthy now when they come up in a shuffle, and I LOVED the album when it came out. Though I will say Funeral is still great, though I often forget about it. So kudos to your number one. Some albums I don’t know, some I do and wouldn’t necessarily agree.

I laughed when I saw The Boy Least Likely Too and Spock's Beard. I'm likely to shoot myself if I ever hear another track off of The Best Party Ever. Who are The Feeling?
