This may sound blasphemous but I do think 'the album' has played a less important part in my relationship with music this decade than the previous two decades. The final few years of the 00's was when I started transitioning away from an 'add album to ipod an listen excessively' habit to acquiring small chunks of music from multiple different sources along with being introduced to Spotify which I see I first joined on 18/01/10. It feels odd to provide a list of my favourites of the decade as there are artists that have a had songs/albums/gigs that have had a huge impact on me but their albums may not fall into the traditional flawless cohesive album mould. The albums that do come to mind are: Joanna Newsom - Have One On Me PJ Harvery - Let England Shake Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy Sharon van Etten - Tramp (all 4 of her albums from this decade are contenders) Anaïs Mitchell - Hadestown

And yet one of the most critically acclaimed albums of the decade. I must have listened to it more than fifteen times waiting for something to grab me and it never happened.
