ThePretender Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 (edited) Billboard's Readers' Poll: Albums of the Decade 01. Michael Jackson - Invincible 02. Lady GaGa - The Fame 03. Britney Spears - Blackout 04. Taylor Swift - Taylor Swift 05. Taylor Swift - Fearless 06. Adam Lambert - For Your Entertainment 07. Ashley Tisdale - Guilty Pleasure 08. Britney Spears - Circus 09. Green Day - American Idiot 10. Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory Artist of the Decade 19: Linkin Park With six cooks in their rock 'n' roll kitchen, you'd think that the members of Linkin Park would have difficulties forging ahead in the same creative direction. But the method to their multi-platinum madness, which has earned them five Top 5 albums on the Billboard 200 this decade, is to just go with the flow. "I find that over-planning a creative project usually means you're gonna screw it up," said Chester Bennington told us in 2009. "When a song comes, I'll write it. When a song comes to Mike [shinoda], he'll put [it] down. We just kind of roll with it spontaneously." Best of 2000s: Billboard 200 11. Linkin Park - Hybrd Theory 36. Linkin Park - Meteora 43.

Synyster Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 i would say there could be more bands like gd and lp on that list...but good for lp anyways! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TnkA Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 it gets me so angry when albums by Britney Spears and people lyk here get this high and stuff lyk this, i mean they do nothing on the records apart from sing and when it comes to doing it live they cant even do that either! only real artists that bring up the songs from scratch should be allowed in these polls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkViper30000 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 MUACK! HYBRID THEORY, LP, Mike, Chazy, all of them FTW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPPRJKT4 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 American Idiot should've been replaced with Dookie. It's a shame Hybrid Theory is number 10 cuz that is one of the most musically diverse albums of the decade. How the hell Ashley Tisdale and Lady Gaga got up there is way beyond me. I especailly don't understand how Lady Gaga was placed in numbr 2. Adam Lambert is a great singer, but because he is gay and completely flaunts it he will never live up to the standards of Jon Bon Jovi or Muse (his fav band). It's a shame really because he's such a great singer. Besides Hybrid Theory, MJ, Green Day, and Adam, these albums kinda suck. Taylor Swift I'll give a 5/10.

rsw2010 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Adam, Lady Gagga, and Britney don't deserve to be on this list. The people at the RS must have been high when they made this list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maunsbach Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 American Idiot should've been replaced with Dookie. Dookie's from 94' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zuben7o7 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 With this decade fast coming to a close, everyone from sports journalists to movie critics to music know-it-alls are putting out these lists. Considering I have read some pretty prominent sites (AOL, MTV, SI, Billboard) I'm pretty astonished at some of the rankings, even for LP. Adam Lambert, considering he JUST got on the scene should be nowhere near a top 10 list. Some of those lists I have read are just puzzling whether they are fan voted or placed by "professional critics." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahninator Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 That's the worst list I have ever seen in my life. I can't begin to explain all the shit wrong with it. It's more of a best of 2009 with 2-3 pre-2009 bands. What the hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immortalsoul Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 The Albums of the Decade list is a fucking joke! *lol* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexonlyalex Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 I'm more than sure that those are kinda selling charts, which only counting how many albums been sold in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Albums of the Decade list was chosen by readers--apparently by a lot of readers that have a shitty taste in music Edited December 26, 2009 by immortalsoul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
