Salem, MIA, and the Arcade Fire 'dominate' NME's "Top Albums+Songs of year list"


NME is apparently some 'respected music magazine' based in the United Kingdom. Ppl from the UK generally have weird taste in music, and don't really 'get' some of today's most relevant bands. They usually like weirdo garage rock, dubstep, or Radioheady crap or sometimes even random pop singer broads.

Anyways, they did their 'Best of the Year' list/issue or something, and now every1 can 'begin discussing' who deserves 2 be the #1 album of year that will be remembered for 'the rest of time.'

Are 'album of the year' lists 'bullshit' or important 4 branding ur editorial voice?

NME's Top Ten Albums Of 2010 are:

1. These New Puritans – 'Hidden' -never even head this song
2. Arcade Fire – 'The Suburbs' -do they have suburbs in the UK?
3. Beach House – 'Teen Dream' -probs just 'copying PItchfork'
4. LCD Soundsystem – 'This Is Happening' -forgot this album even existed
5. Laura Marling – 'I Speak Because I Can' -who the eff is Laura Marling?
6. Foals – 'Total Life Forever' -think I have heard 1 or 2 songs by them
7. Zola Jesus – 'Stridulum II' -no idea who the eff this is
8. Salem – 'King Night' -great pick, shoulda been #1
9. Liars – 'Sisterworld' -get this band confused with 'Foals' usually
10. The Drums – 'The Drums' -think this band is used in a bunch of commercials

NME's Top Ten Tracks Of 2010 are:

1. Foals – 'Spanish Sahara' -listened to this song, seems emotional/ 'moving'
2. MIA – 'XXXO' -Thought this song is probably 1 of the worst of the year
3. Janelle Monae – 'Tightrope' -trendy post-Pitchfork Kanye 10.0 pick?
4. Kanye West – 'Power' -Wonder what P4k will say is 'the best Kanye Song'
5. Arcade Fire – 'We Used To Wait' -kinda a honky song,
6. Gorillaz – 'Stylo' -think I saw this on mtv. British ppl 'love' Gorillaz and Muse
7. Surfer Blood – 'Swim' -Think they got a lot of buzz in 2k9
8. Grinderman – 'Heathen Child' -would guess that this is a hardcore band
9. Zola Jesus – 'Night' -Sounds boring
10. The Fall – 'Bury Pts 2 +4' -Sounds like a 'trendy' mp3 from 2k4

Does NME just 'copy' Pitchfork?
Is Pitchfork more relevant than NME?
Do u think MIA's "XXXO" is a terrible song?
Should Salem have been rated higher?
Is Salem 'effing terrible'?
Do people from the UK just 'pretend' to 'love' the Arcade Fire?
