I use pitchfork to find stuff I would otherwise miss, but I keep in
mind that they are like the old record store clicks of the 70's,
elitist fuckers who think that anyone who is at all successful is
automatically crap.
Looking at that list there's far to much rap/hip hop which I really
don't care about at all beyond a few early albums. And it doesn't have
any of the recent albums I really like.
Billy Bragg, Rufus Wainwright, Arctic Monkeys, The Long Blondes, or
She & Him Volume 1 (Which I adore), and several others. But
Radiohead's Kid A is good, and Arcade FIre's Funeral. No Green Day
though? Bah. But that's how it is with Pitchfork in general.
