I also love the songwriting, as nearly half of the album contains gorillaz best material and even the ones that arent are still really consistent in terms of quality. The features are really well done, empire ants, some kind of nature, even styo, and I belive it's just a stronger album as a whole then demon days

    Tyler the Creator's Igor should be a contender for album of the decade. It is a great album that sounds NOW. It would not have been made 10 years ago. It is a culmination of many of the decade's defining characteristics- the rise and dominance of hip hop and African American artistry in US mainstream culture, the use of social media and indie mixtapes to gain a fan base and bypass the usual record industry's gate keeping and/or creative compromise,, the unlikely crossover from niche to the mainstream, the fusion of hip hop, pop and other elements to create a sound identifiably Tyler's but one which is sui generis, the personal and overtly LGBTQ subject matter, an African American artist overtly referring to a LGBTQ relationship, the expression of genuine and sincere feelings (reflecting the cultural move toward post-ironic, authenticiity), and, most importantly, the music, the music, the music. Igor is the sound of tomorrow.

      @@nintendonut100 that's an easy mistake to make since it was releases early early 2010, so just barely. As a standalone album, it's just such a masterful work of genres, production, features and moods all to create what is basically the best pop album of this decade and that's really. underpraising it. Not to mentiom that the next thing they released after Plastic Beach was fucking DoYaThing. Phase 3 Gorillaz was best Gorillaz.
      My other picks for AOTD were Fellas on the Moon by DG (albeit only choosing the good half of an album is questionable) and Everywhere at the End of Time by The Caretaker (which are 6 albums in one)

      Jenny Death has its moments (and those are very VERY high moments) but i felt the majority of the side dragged with some tracks I've even forgotten what happened on it (Turned Off and Centuries of Damn),. it's a shame because Jenny Death thematically is amazing, but compared to the glitchy production, the abstract atmosphere, the masterful lyrics that are basically poetry, all wrapped with a 30 minute runtime of Fellas on the Moon, it pails heavily in comparison.

    MGMT's self-titled and Little Dark Age are both second to none in my book. Never heard anything like them, no music has ever influenced how I listen to or create music so deeply. Or altered my perception on life in general. Or gave me the feeling of being so relatable it's almost creepy, like the albums were made for me. The self-titled one in particular really helped me through a dark, alienated time when I felt misunderstood and lonely. It felt like a future or alternate, musically-talented version of me was making an album for this version of me. Weird. Amazing. Inspiring. Beautiful. Perfect. 10/10, both of them.

    I am never good at this whole "X of the decade" kind of stuff, because I never like boiling things down to singulars. That one album can capture everything I look for and fulfill my needs for music. Especially in music, where my mood and state of life when listening does alot to weigh my opinions, as I lean on it so heavily for support. I can give you a few highlights of the decade, be they as simplistic and not really thoughtfully selected as they may be;
    *Queens of the Stone Age - ...Like Clockwork*
    Before this album, I couldn't really get a good grip of Queens of the Stone Age. To this day, there's something I prefer in this album to something like Songs for the Deaf. I attribute alot of that to the more calm and slower pace of the music that emphasizes the melancholic feel of alot of the album. While I certainly liked Villains quite a bit better than you did, I can agree it does not hold a candle to this album.
    *Judas Priest - Firepower*
    More than anything, this album impressed me. Even after just shy of half a century, even after peaking two decades ago, Rob and the gang still manage to pump out something with this much power and energy and also manage to have some of the better chops of their career on it, so far into their lifecycle.
    *Dead Can Dance - Anastasis*
    In my hobby of tabletop roleplaying, I have not found an album more helpful to me than this one. This album has a great talent in sparking imagination, painting landscapes in my head and due to how the lyrics of many tracks are sung in a made up language, leaves it to me to make what I will out of it.
    *Ghost - Meliora*
    Ghost as a band stands as an almost all-encompassing celebration of rock and metal. They have an extremely impressive range of genres and tones they capture with their music, yet never stray off from a recognizable sound, with that haunting and eerie satanic feel. Meliora captures this part of them better than any of their other releases in my opinion.
    *Radiohead - Moon-Shaped Pool*
    Even for Radiohead's standards, this album is deeply immersive. When playing from front to back, it is very easy to just lose yourself in the soundscape this album creates, as bleak and sorrowful as many of the images it paints can get.

    Teens of Denial by car seat headrest. The album is a beautiful mixture of rock’s progression weaved together by a deep and heavy (yet still lo-fi) production. The lyrics on the album are witty, deep, funny, and personal. the instrumentation even has sparks of horns, and contains amazing ballads that draw you in for the entirety of their track length. Car Seat Headrest is an admirable band with truly indie story and this album encapsulates that perfectly as Will Toledo talks about depression, religion, love, and self admiration.

    Random Access Memories - Daft Punk

    It's my favourite album of all time, so it's gotta be The Caretaker's Everywhere at the end of time series. It expresses the concept of memory loss in such an indescribable way that I genuinely cannot listen to it without tearing up anymore. That's a personal thing, sure, but it's also unparalleled in its execution, relative to other projects - especially ambient ones - that have a similar sonic goal eg Disintegration Loops. The way it gradually degrades feels oddly human, and that's what makes it click for me. It also has a stellar ending. Won't spoil that though for those who haven't heard it!

    I don't think I've listened to enough albums from this year to be able to make a confident choice. But I can easily say that Plastic Beach is the best album I've heard so far that came out this decade.

      I was thinking the same. I doubt it will be as it has its lows. I absolutely love the album and kinda want it to be on there because of its huge influence in the electronic music world and helping creating vaporwave.
