It’s always been interesting to me to compare my lists against Pitchfork‘s. They seem to be the only major music publication I agree with most of the time, as they cover all of the major genres and artists of the time. Just for fun, I took their list of the 200 Best Albums of the 2010s and combined it with my own to see what changes would occur. I stopped the list at 125 because after that, it was mostly just albums only 1 list had. The number listed by each album is the average ranking between the two lists.
