Under The Skin #42 of top 50 Albums of the Year in new Rolling Stone
The Year in Review issue is out and they've put UTS at #42 of the top 50 albums of the year (it should've been higher, but what do you expect from the idiots at RS?)
Here's what they said: In "Not Too Late," Buckingham looks back at his life in Fleetwood Mac with frantic flamencolike guitar: "Reading the paper, saw a review/Said I was a visionary, but nobody knew/Now that's been a problem/Feeling unseen." He could fix that by making records more often. But the eccentricity of Skin suits Buckingham's reflections of his past life and current blessings. And he is secure enough to cover madrigals by Donovan ("To Try For The Sun") and the Rolling Stones ("I Am Waiting"), with quietly magnetic results.

Well, #41 is Sean Lennon's Friendly Fire, #38 is Tool's 10,000 Days, #35 is John Legend's Once Again, and #20 is My Chemical Romance's The Black Parade. No offense to anybody who is fan of any of the above, but I really can't stand them.

Here's the list to put it into some context.
Although I think Rolling Stone is one of the worst music mags out there these days, there are actually some really great choices on this list (nice to see The Roots on this one).

Friendly Fire - Sean Lennon 40. Make History - Thunderbirds Are Now! 39. The Tragic Treasury - The Gothic Archies 38. 10,000 Days - Tool 37. Alive And Kickin' - Fats Domino 36. I Am Not Afraid Of You And I Will Beat Your Ass - Yo La Tengo 35. Once Again - John Legend 34. The Eraser - Thom Yorke 33. The Devil You Know - Todd Snider 32. Supernature - Goldfrapp 31.

Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not - Arctic Monkeys 16. Food & Liquor - Lupe Fiasco 15. Wolfmother - Wolfmother 14. American V: A Hundred Highways - Johnny Cash 13.

45. Fox Confessor Brings The Flood - Neko Case
44. Show Your Bones - Yeah Yeah Yeahs 42. Under The Skin - Lindsey Buckingham 34. The Eraser - Thom Yorke 32. Supernature - Goldfrapp 28. Broken Boy Soldiers - The Raconteurs 14. American V: A Hundred Highways - Johnny Cash These should have been higher, especially the Neko Case album, but I agree with the ranking of Cat Power and Bob Dylan. It would have been nice to see Jenny Lewis on that list as well... And what the hell is John Mayer's album doing at #11? Its not even that good |

And I cannot get over the fact that John Mayer is so high, let-alone on that list at all... |

Not to worry, I haven't heard of most of them either and I'm only 25.

I glad it's just not me! And I don't get the John Mayer love either. He's one of those bland American singer/songwriters like Dave Matthews, who just seems inexplicitly popular.

Speaking of Eric Clapton - its an absolute crime that his new album with JJ Cale is not on that list - I would put it top 5. |

These lists are never satisfying, but I think it is pretty cool that his album made it. I do think Neko case should have been higher. I am glad to see Brightback Morning Light on there.

Well Congrats Lindsey!!!
Where the hell are the Killers? They have an article about them EVERY week in Rolling Stone. I can't believe they didn't even chart. The new chilli peppers CD is AWESOME! Definitely deserving of a #2 spot. John Mayers album sucked. |
