MY 50 ALBUMS OF THE 00’s

As every single publication seems to be rounding up a list for the decade, I thought I might as well too. My friend Joe over at

Fin De Cinema

inspired, and subsequently posted my early lists already, and though the music portion just expanded and shifted, the film part should be quite altered by the time I get it up. Neither list will ever be “right” to me, but this is close to it.
