One II looks at some albums from 2001, 2011 and 2021. One vote. I can't say I'm very impressed with some of my choices here, but there's a several I'm really into.

Actually going through the 15 I'd I'm pretty happy with this one. I had dropped a few I had planned to include just before posting this. Last minute changes. Again I'm trying to list more known ones and less obscure ones.

Several nice albums here, Stephan Thelen, Jordsjo, Ske... still Radiohead wins it for me.

Radiohead's Amnesiac for sure for me, but I also like the Present, Ske, Trees Speak and Elephant9 albums. I should be more attentive to Shamblemaths. I have heard that Transatlantic album, but it did not resonate with me. Of course what is superb/sublime, interesting or moving to me may be banal/bland or disagreeable and evoke no passion or interest in another.

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

I could easily vote for this one. One of my favourite modern double albums. Consistently great.

When I see names like Kerman, Trigaux and Chevalier I know I'm in for a treat. And Ske's album is generally worshipped it seems by Avant fans. I just never "got it" but I love Yugen.

I can't believe how much I connected with Amnesiac. It and Kid A are my "go to" Radiohead records but I like several others by them, just not as much.

The only 3 star record(in my opinion) I put up there was the Transatlantic one. I much prefer other albums by them. Of course its getting the most votes.
