The idea behind that collaborative article was just to write a blurb about certain songs we liked throughout the year and put them all together as a list of very different songs that we find interesting. If anything, I think it shows the diversity of tmters' taste in music.
btw, thanks for reading.

What I do like about Pitchfork is that they review rap albums and singles (although sporadically). So far, I don't know of any site that reviews absolutely every kind of music. PopMatters comes very, very close. Their reviews are usually lagged by a few days or weeks so I don't go to their site as often, especially since it's near-impossible to find what they've reviewed in the past. That's more of qualm with their site as opposed to their content.

The only one on their that I recognized was Jandek, and that is because SPIN did an article on him a few months ago.
AFAIK, I've never heard any of the music on that list.

Seems like most people haven't heard much on the list. There is a bunch of good stuff to check out and seems like people might need to go soulseeking if you know what I mean. Note to the mods: Nothing on that list is RIAA protected.
