I put together a rough list of my top 200 albums of the decade and decided I'm going to try to listen through them chronologically over the next couple months.
Should be an interesting and revealing project
First up, 2010: Vampire Weekend - Contra Beach House - Teen Dream Joanna Newsom - Have One on Me Flying Lotus - Cosmogramma The National - High Violet The Black Keys - Brothers Janelle Monae - The ArchAndroid LCD Soundsystem - This Is Happening Tame Impala - Innerspeaker Ty Segall - Melted Arcade Fire - The Suburbs Katy Perry - Teenage Dream Sharon Van Etten - Epic Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest Sufjan Stevens - The Age of Adz Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy Robyn - Body Talk
I think I'm just overall more familiar with The Electric Lady because that's when I got into her, and I think it's definitely the catchier and more accessible album of the too
But I just finished relistening to The ArchAndroid and this album is so good and so perfectly weird and out there and visionary, that I might end up giving it the edge

Although I do like Electric Lady, it just feels overall more bland with less stand out moments. Between the first 3 song suite, Cold War, Come Alive, Neon Valley Street, Tightrope... there are so many high points for me.
That was when I got into her though. Listened to that cd in my car for months straight when it came out.

Finished with 2010 today. Joanna Newsom and Sufjan, two artists I haven't delved into near as deep as I should, really blew me away. I almost quit the Black Keys record 4 or 5 songs in. Just does nothing for me anymore.

Ultra Middle Brother - Middle Brother Kurt Vile - Smoke Ring For My Halo Bill Callahan - Apocalypse The Head and the Heart - The Head and the Heart White Denim - D Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues Thee Oh Sees - Castlemania My Morning Jacket - Circuital Dawes - Nothing Is Wrong Bon Iver - Bon Iver Chadwick Stokes - Simmerkane II Portugal. the Man - In the Mountain in the Cloud Gillian Welch - The Harrow & The Harvest Kendrick Lamar - Section.80 The Milk Carton Kids - Prologue Jay-Z and Kanye West - Watch the Throne St. Vincent - Strange Mercy Cave - Neverendless M83 - Hurry Up, We're Dreaming Real Estate - Days
