My Poproks 10 Best Albums of the 2000s
So bla bla bla, right? Another “Best of the Decade” list. I can’t possibly bring myself to explain these choices in detail of any kind. I’m all detailed out for the year. I feel like I keep reading the same things about a few of these records on different sites, and no one likes when the internet repeats itself. I cannot read one more retrospective blurb about Stankonia, even if it is my own.
You actually probably won’t hate this one (except #6. You’re gonna hate #6).
