I'm surprise MGMT are that high up. They're okay but I didn't find it lighting up my world. I actually find that (inexplicably intentional) distortion really off-putting.
I wouldn't have put Figure 8 in as the only Elliott Smith album either. I think From a Basement On the Hill is much better but it's nice to see him represented in some way.
It's a crime that Bon Iver is so low on that list! I just could listen to that album on an endless repeat and never get tired of anything on it.
