A brief note of thanks to Michael B and Oor Neechy for getting us to this point.
So yes, it's been almost ten years - time enough to have worked out what's worth saving from the fearsome post-Y2K technological expansion frenzy. It was the decade of Pitchfork, the decade where many of us switched to streaming services, the decade ILM came to be, and above all the decade of new rave
Here's what ILX came up with for the second half of the noughties a while back:
ILM Top 100 2005-2009: TRACKS
ILM Top 100 2005-2009: ALBUMS
We're going to do this EOY style - 30 nominations total. For a whole decade, you cry? You'll just have to pick well.
Other stuff:
- Please make sure it's obvious which nominations are tracks and which are albums.
- Always use the order "Artist - Track"/"Artist - Album", never put the artist second. It's hard enough to filter out duplicates as it is.
- Ctrl+F through the expanded thread before nominating
Here's a TRACKS PLAYLIST we'll try to keep updated
...and here's an ALBUMS PLAYLIST we'll post individual tracks from nominated albums to
I think that more or less covers it? Save me seandalai etc
Oh! Deadline! You have until when I wake up on September 15. Should be reasonable. Remember, this is just the nominations deadline and there will be a comparable (or longer) voting period taking us through into October, when all of this will go down...as you have designed

Glad all the '00s Silver Jews LPs were nominated. I'd been casually listening to them far more than any other noughties music since certain events in August.
