If the Arcade Fire got one US dollar for every 500 words written about them in newspapers and blogs in 2004, instead of their royalty check, they'd have more than enough money to buy a new accordion and party dress for Regine.

I don't have any Kanye on my list cuz that guy has one of the assiest voices in rap history. I kinda hoped (p.s. my token rap album is Bumblebeez 81) would keep people from getting defensive.

listing the token rap album or just not listing any rap/hip-hop at all
i know that no rap album is even close to my top ten of 2004.
(i have trouble liking the full albums, but i love hip-hop/rap singles)

Most true. For instance, I'm not giving Miccio beatings for not listing the Siouxsie B-sides box set in his list EVEN THOUGH IT'S CLEARLY MORE GENIUS THAN JUST ABOUT ANYTHING oops there I go again...

Gregory Conner, Tufts Observer
http://www.tuftsobserver.org/arts/20041210/top_10_albums_of_2004.html
Brian Wilson—SMILE: What can I say about SMILE that hasn’t been said?
Arcade Fire—Funeral: Ah, PitchforkMedia.com. At times I find it disturbing that I have a strong relationship with a website...
Interpol—Antics
Wilco—A Ghost is Born: Thirteen minutes of something that sounds like a room full of refrigerators! What was Wilco thinking!?
Loretta Lynn—Van Lear Rose: To be honest, I probably would have never picked this record up if it wasn’t for Jack White...
Green Day—American Idiot: This was the surprise of 2004 for me.
Franz Ferdinand—Franz Ferdinand: This album was even better before I heard “Take Me Out” so many times I became nauseous at the sound of its first guitar flourish.
Iron and Wine—Our Endless Numbered Days: Singer-songwriters may have the hardest job in music. It is up to only them whether they succeed or fail; they have no band to pick up the slack or superstar producer to save them with a new beat. Kanye West—College Dropout: The rap album of the year.
The Hives—Tyrannosaurus Hives
