but if i'm honest, i'd say i can't b/c i steadily lost interest in new music over the past 2-3 years. last year, i think i listened to maybe 5 new releases. so my list would definitely lean towards material from the start of the decade.

but many of my favorite albums of the 00s are ones that are likely not going to be recognized by the likes of pitchfork, rolling stone, spin, urb, or whomever, so that has me thinking twice. i don't know. maybe i'll do it one day when i should be doing something else more productive.
