It's been 3 years and 4 months since the beginning of 2010, which means we're about 33% of the way through whatever this decade is called (the teens?). I did a similar list 10 years ago, in a message board post that predated this blog, and it's fun to compare that to list I made at the end of the decade. Who knows how my opinion will change in 7 years -- some of these are pretty recent 2013 ones I've been really digging but haven't written about yet (one just came out this week!), but this is how I feel right now. In a weird way it already feels like these years constitute their own 'era' -- it helps that I became a father 3 months before the end of 2009, so all my personal memories and emotions tied up in these records reflect a very specific and important period in my life. So, here are my 33 favorite albums and singles of the decade so far.
