That makes no sense considering some of his picks.

This is a good list, but where are Fleet Foxes? Not even in the top 25? What a joke. The Gaslight Anthem is near the top where it should be.

The Plastic Constellations! They went to my high school! i love these dudes, way to make the top ten, guys. One of the 'hardest' working bands in the Twin Cities that didn't get the recognition they deserve.

That list was pretty legit actually, outside of Tha Carter III and Pretty. Odd.

The Gaslight Anthem getting love is awsome, probably my number 2 this year

It will probably end up in my top 5.

Not a horrible list honestly.

Anything with Gaslight on it can't be too horrible.

I freaking love TV on the Radio. Really glad they're number 1 on this list too!

The comments! MTV fire this guy! He only has his own opinions instead of everyone else's!

get the fuck out of here, the gaslight anthem didn't make my top 50.

I agree with his list adding death cab, kanye, m83, and coldplay but they are all in the wrong spots. panic should not be there whatsoever. horrible band live. I really want to know what's the big deal with tv on the radio and I really want to get into deerhunter. adding mgmt on the list was good as well.

this list was so much better than his song list. I say bring back trl and fire his ass!

i'm not familiar with some of these artists, i'll have to check them out. i like james' writing, and although i don't agree with everything he says, i think he usually gives a pretty accurate/fair report on stuff
