mohair (jon kapper), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:23 (twenty-one years ago)

and cat power at 11(!)

why?

jed (jed_e_3), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:34 (twenty-one years ago)

It's on the site here.

NickB (NickB), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:34 (twenty-one years ago)

I didn't think they ranked the records. They never put numbers next to them.

Mark (MarkR), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:35 (twenty-one years ago)

It's true they aren't numbered, but isn't there some implied ordering?

Anyway, once again they love them some Robert Wyatt over at the Wire. Wasn't Shleep the top album the year it came out too? Not to say that they aren't both very very good records.

o. nate (onate), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:36 (twenty-one years ago)

I mean if they wanted to make an unranked list, wouldn't they do alphabetical order?

o. nate (onate), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:37 (twenty-one years ago)

jed (jed_e_3), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:37 (twenty-one years ago)

What happened to Cuckooland? It disappeared from the top of that second list.

o. nate (onate), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:38 (twenty-one years ago)

i think it's really telling they've dropped the "critical beats" category. (one they once had the whimsy to title "low end".)

fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:38 (twenty-one years ago)

the top ten have sleeve pics and short reviews so there's definately an order at the beginning of the list anyway.

jed (jed_e_3), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:38 (twenty-one years ago)

I wonder why putting numbers to the left is a problem. It this some postmodern thing?

Mark (MarkR), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Artists cannot be numbered like cattle at the county fair!!! Overthrow the bourgeoisie! ETC!

o. nate (onate), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:41 (twenty-one years ago)

um, the jimmy lyons is a box set but never mind.

I've only heard 'dreams top rock' and that was terrific (i think it made melissa's list too). there's abt five things I'd really like to hear from this list. david sylvian isn't one of them.

x-post: it would have been nice if they were listed in alphabetical order.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:44 (twenty-one years ago)

"Dreams Top Rock" was Marcello's #1 too. I'll admit my curiosity is piqued.

o. nate (onate), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:46 (twenty-one years ago)

i suspect that outside the top 5 or so theres actually very little separating the rest of the list points-wise (assuming they do it that way) since everyone has basically voted for suff in their own area of expertise and its only the things that have crossed over that stand above the rest.

that's garbled but i'm tired.

jed (jed_e_3), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:47 (twenty-one years ago)

"Dreams Top Rock" was my No. 1 too.

Mark (MarkR), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:47 (twenty-one years ago)

the only thing im dying to hear that i havent already heard is the Rowe/Tilbury thing.

Im really puzzled by why cat power is suddenly getting so much attention - she's been doing the same thing, pretty much, for a while. Not only that but some people are doing that thing much better (*jed bangs on about Nina Nastasia yet again*)

jed (jed_e_3), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:51 (twenty-one years ago)

The two Diamanda Galas records are good, but especially Serpenta Canta. However, if you want to say Pitchfork is feeding off ILM, then I say The Wire is feeding off Pitchfork.

dleone (dleone), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Why do you say that, dleone. A quick skimming doesn't reveal a whole lot of overlap between the two lists.

o. nate (onate), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Well I don't really mean Pitchfork, per se, but I think The Wire is into branching out their scope to include more accessible stuff. I mean, in some way, it's great to see a list that includes Dizzee Rascal, Galas, Cat Power and Aki Onda - it's just not something I'd have expected to see a few years ago from that magazine.

dleone (dleone), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:58 (twenty-one years ago)

cat power has "presence"

xpost

disco stu (disco stu), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:58 (twenty-one years ago)

i think this is a very typical wire end of year list

disco stu (disco stu), Friday, 19 December 2003 17:58 (twenty-one years ago)

oh dleone, so that's why the quality has dropped in the last 12 months? ;)

jed- er, cat power is really good at what she does. maybe the same thing over and over but its not like it matters. I haven't heard the new record but it seems to be only since 'moonpix' that she has been getting attention.

x-post: er, diamanda has always been 'wire' type artist. dizzee has not got in bcz pitchfork has been giving them props.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:00 (twenty-one years ago)

a few years ago the wire was featuring a LOT MORE indie/hip-hop/dance in their top 50

fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:00 (twenty-one years ago)

i haven't been able to fully get into the rhythm & sound lp - all of the tracks work so much better as singles

disco stu (disco stu), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Julio, I'm saying Galas (and Aki Onda) is something I'd expect to see in the wire, but not Cat Power. Anyway, I don't dislike the list.

dleone (dleone), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:01 (twenty-one years ago)

Fiddo is OTM. They've been including more accessible indie-type stuff for as long as I've been following their lists.

o. nate (onate), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:02 (twenty-one years ago)

The real wire news this month is that there is a longish article on Arthur Russel by David Toop.

Julio - think that Cat Power is decent at what she does.

jed (jed_e_3), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:03 (twenty-one years ago)

The then & now changes re The Wire probably has more to do w/ Cover subjects. That's def. changed in last 3 years (more often overlaps w/ American indie)

Mark (MarkR), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:04 (twenty-one years ago)

a few years ago the wire was featuring a LOT MORE indie/hip-hop/dance in their top 50

true, but does it surprise you that this list doesn't?

disco stu (disco stu), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:05 (twenty-one years ago)

oh sorry misread it dleone.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:05 (twenty-one years ago)

cat power

i was just wondering why everyone is suddenly paying her attention NOW - i dont mind people doing the same thing over and over. I'm all for it.

jed (jed_e_3), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:06 (twenty-one years ago)

you are free is a very 2003 sounding record to me. it just fits.

disco stu (disco stu), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:08 (twenty-one years ago)

jed- maybe it took a while to tour enough places and get enough notice over here? maybe she got even better round moonpix (also didin't that record have members of the dirty three in it --> more connections maybe).

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Rhythm & Sound definitely toppermost of the poppermost for me this year, which was a total surprise.

Colin Meeder (Mert), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:15 (twenty-one years ago)

all the lists are rankings except where indicated

i cant believer i wasted 3 minutes of my life typing that top ten!
haha i typed out the whole Top 50 (artists only) the other day just in case! it's good they put the charts on their site too tho' - i hate The Wire typefaces, the simpler presentation on the site makes for much easier reading

zebedee (zebedee), Friday, 19 December 2003 18:20 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm glad the Fahey hasn't been all forgotten about. Its one of my faves by him.

Sterling Clover (s_clover), Friday, 19 December 2003 20:22 (twenty-one years ago)

strange that there's no critical beats section in there - i know they asked for votes in that category. maybe no one besides me voted in that category?

philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Friday, 19 December 2003 20:23 (twenty-one years ago)

It's interesting that Dizzee was clearly rated by the voters....even while the mag passed on doing anything along the lines of a feature, or even a proper album review.

screwface (philip sherburne), Friday, 19 December 2003 20:24 (twenty-one years ago)

otm

jed (jed_e_3), Friday, 19 December 2003 21:07 (twenty-one years ago)

(one they once had the whimsy to title "low end")

haha -- fiddo, you funny man!

I like this list, it seems reasonably broad and representative for that, uh, kind of thing that the Wire do. Lots of stuff I'd still love to check out. Can't believe they didn't include that Alterations reissue on any of the lists tho - that thing rips! Maybe a conflict of interest thing w/ Toop? I dunno.

Broheems (diamond), Friday, 19 December 2003 21:24 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah i'm surprised no 'critical beats' category was included as well! that was the one i was most looking forward to reading

geeta (geeta), Friday, 19 December 2003 22:44 (twenty-one years ago)

I was looking forward to the "Logistical Beatdown" section.

o. nate (onate), Friday, 19 December 2003 22:53 (twenty-one years ago)

What is the So rec like? That one seems to have passed me by.

Sorry Jed, putting aside issues of quality, I don't think Cat Power is doing anything remotely similar to Nina Nastasia, or vice versa. Cat Power = folkie/indie waif-wailing outsiderdom (eg in the same bag as Smog, Will Oldham, Michael Hurley etc): NN = PJ Harvey, Nick Cave, blah blah

Andrew L (Andrew L), Friday, 19 December 2003 23:39 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm wondering how come I wasn't asked to vote.

Phil Freeman (Phil Freeman), Saturday, 20 December 2003 00:53 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm kinda wondering why Groovy Gravy's "Don't Go Back To Donnington Castle" isn't on this list. That's what you get for putting an album out in january, I guess. But, hey, they were still playing DJ Fartatak's acid-grime remix of "Wheels Of Mud" long into the summer, so it's not as if the thing just disappeared. Maybe it's cuz a couple of tracks had already shown up on the Japanese-only e.p."Forester? I Thought She Was Your Sister" from last year?

scott seward (scott seward), Saturday, 20 December 2003 01:01 (twenty-one years ago)

I dunno... is Robert Wyatt still *that* good that he deserves two mentions in the top 50? Maybe you had to grow up with Soft Machine to get it but i just find most of his (and much of his Cuneiform ilk) pretty boring. and i do like Soft Machine, btw. anyone with me here?

ken taylrr, Saturday, 20 December 2003 01:10 (twenty-one years ago)

umm... add "new stuff" after that Cuneiform ilk bit...

ken taylrr, Saturday, 20 December 2003 01:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Phil Freeman asks ..I'm wondering how come I wasn't asked to vote

They would have had to create a new genre category: Metal

DJ Martian (djmartian), Saturday, 20 December 2003 01:11 (twenty-one years ago)

I had no idea there was a new NWW record out. Not surprisingly. I assume it is a new NWW record.

Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Saturday, 20 December 2003 01:13 (twenty-one years ago)

(I'm wondering how come I wasn't asked to vote.-- Phil Freeman

'm wondering even more 'bout why Andy Hamilton didn't vote this time)

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Saturday, 20 December 2003 01:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Well Andrew its off thread but you are wrong i think. Nina has more in common with smog than cat power does. Unlike Nick Cave and PJ Harvey (at times) you never realy know what the "story" is. Nina's record is the album of the year for me, compared to her cat power seems formulaic.

jed (jed_e_3), Saturday, 20 December 2003 01:43 (twenty-one years ago)

bizarre how supposedly concentrating on the outest of the out just ends up with so many empty solidarity gestures for old touchstone faves, like if ur gonna be hardcore then dont have one eye on timelessness

prima fassy (bob), Saturday, 20 December 2003 02:04 (twenty-one years ago)

yes! you are so right!

jed (jed_e_3), Saturday, 20 December 2003 02:37 (twenty-one years ago)

i don't think 2003 was a particularly wonderful year for music (yes, there were exceptions) and yet that's the most number of releases on a wire top 50 i've had in the last ten years.

it's official, i have turned from being a wire reader into being a wire reader!


stirmonster, Saturday, 20 December 2003 02:43 (twenty-one years ago)

what's the number of your 'most' then, stirmonster?

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Saturday, 20 December 2003 02:45 (twenty-one years ago)

said in a negativland voice - ELEVEN!

stirmonster, Saturday, 20 December 2003 02:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Uh-uh. Thirty-nine to go then! :)

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Saturday, 20 December 2003 02:59 (twenty-one years ago)

No matter how hard I try to follow music, of every kind, the Wire will always manage to make list comprised of at least 90% artists Ive never heard of.

David Allen, Saturday, 20 December 2003 03:43 (twenty-one years ago)

I had no idea there was a new NWW record out. Not surprisingly. I assume it is a new NWW record.

yeah, it is, it came out a while back (may?). there've been a couple since, i think. salt marie celeste is good, though not as good as the write up in the wire suggested; it's basically an hour of ship creaking/storm noises. good to work to.

toby (tsg20), Saturday, 20 December 2003 09:11 (twenty-one years ago)

prima has a good point: there's always been something very 'mojo' mag- like about the wire.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Saturday, 20 December 2003 10:07 (twenty-one years ago)

''It's interesting that Dizzee was clearly rated by the voters....even while the mag passed on doing anything along the lines of a feature, or even a proper album review.''

also: has there really been no review or written piece on dizzee rascal? I ask bcz I haven't bought 2-3 issues this year so i assumed that it was covered in one of those.

if there isn't then this list is really fucked.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Saturday, 20 December 2003 11:49 (twenty-one years ago)

well maybe not always so much with the mojo thing, ok derek bailey is the classic but i quite like how irate ppl get about him, it's almost an injoke! but the no critical beats farrago is another nudge at the timelessness angst cos i seem to remember plenty more herrington era picks that seem endearingly dorky now, raves of the time that havent aged well but u could see why they were fun then. obv thats wild unsupportable hindsight but it wasn't just critical beats type stuff either, an example would be good now and i cant be arsed to sift. and hey maybe that's the point anyway, how the mag makes u feel generally. or maybe this is me doing ilx-style timeless ahistoricism!

prima fassy (bob), Saturday, 20 December 2003 12:23 (twenty-one years ago)

haha ok fuck it in all honesty i blame the clean smug ikea design

prima fassy (bob), Saturday, 20 December 2003 12:27 (twenty-one years ago)

maybe more conran shop, and the wackyness seems all suspicious alessi curvy kettle

prima fassy (bob), Saturday, 20 December 2003 12:29 (twenty-one years ago)

i let my sub expire but i stil would like to hear all those discs i hvnt yet.

gaz (gaz), Saturday, 20 December 2003 12:29 (twenty-one years ago)

or..i beeen hanging round ilm: how fckin grbt to find a list thats not stylus (which i already heard, ta, and like)

gaz (gaz), Saturday, 20 December 2003 12:36 (twenty-one years ago)

prima has a good point: there's always been something very 'mojo' mag- like about the wire.
-- Julio Desouza

always? ALWAYS?
:O

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Saturday, 20 December 2003 13:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Julio there was a review of "boy in da corner" at the back of the mag under the critical beats page - it was as long as those reviews usually are (say 50 words?) and, as you know, those reviews generally cover 12" releases, not albums.

jed (jed_e_3), Saturday, 20 December 2003 16:49 (twenty-one years ago)

I dunno... is Robert Wyatt still *that* good that he deserves two mentions in the top 50? Maybe you had to grow up with Soft Machine to get it but i just find most of his (and much of his Cuneiform ilk) pretty boring. and i do like Soft Machine, btw. anyone with me here?

Nope. R. Wyatt really is that good. He's the only Old Timer on my list this year, and I can hear his influence loud and clear in the work of some people in their 20s (eg Nathan Michel) who I think are doing the most interesting work now.

Momus (Momus), Saturday, 20 December 2003 17:39 (twenty-one years ago)

so the fahey album is good? like really good? cause i have been so far unimpressed with all of his "comeback" material. will this change my mind?

also i keep meaning to buy the robert wyatt because i'm sure it's great but it's like 24 euros here! and of course wyatt is that good, he's the best for god's sakes.

i think the pitchfork list was more interesting than this one, or more sympathetic (perhaps because we know the whole epic "pitchfork struggles gamely to branch out" story behind that one). this basically seems more like "50 albums that got significant coverage in our magazine this year." which is not t he worst rationale behind such a list but still not terribly interest-perking.

amateur!st (amateurist), Saturday, 20 December 2003 18:50 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah i do guess it's funny to have that "bits and pieces" wyatt cd on here in addition to his new record. they could have made room for just one more new thing. hopefully they won't turn into one of those magazines for whom 5 of the top 10 albums of a given year are various classic-rock reissues.

amateur!st (amateurist), Saturday, 20 December 2003 18:54 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't like + near as much as his earlier, noisier comeback stuff (like City of Refuge, which I'm listening to now). Most of his "clean guitar with reverb" stuff bugs me because the tone is kinda gross (altho the playing's good).

I have two albums on this list.

hstencil, Saturday, 20 December 2003 19:04 (twenty-one years ago)

they could have made room for just one more new thing

the token sonic youth record?

disco stu (disco stu), Saturday, 20 December 2003 19:32 (twenty-one years ago)

jed- so it sounds as if they fucked up.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Saturday, 20 December 2003 19:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Did Marcello put the Cody ChesnuTT album in his top 10????

@d@ml (nordicskilla), Saturday, 20 December 2003 20:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes, it was his #5.

His list.

o. nate (onate), Saturday, 20 December 2003 21:27 (twenty-one years ago)

He also gives high marks to Fiery Furnaces, as he should.

o. nate (onate), Saturday, 20 December 2003 21:28 (twenty-one years ago)

wow! marcello's list is great! i mean not just the choices but his defense of them!

amateur!st (amateurist), Saturday, 20 December 2003 21:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes, it only makes it more depressing that he's planning to stop blogging.

o. nate (onate), Saturday, 20 December 2003 21:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Huh, reading Marcello's list (awesome as always), I'm reminded that darn Fleetwood Mac came out this year. That's another one I haven't seen on many lists (nor the Steely Dan record, come to think of it). I still haven't heard either of 'em.

Broheems (diamond), Saturday, 20 December 2003 22:00 (twenty-one years ago)

god damn it if marcello's list doesn't make me want to really start buying music again, too bad i have no money.

amateur!st (amateurist), Saturday, 20 December 2003 22:15 (twenty-one years ago)

What slighty riles me about The Wire's personal Pros and Cons columns with individual journalists and artists is the ways that almost everyone feels compelled to list "The war in Iraq"/ "George Bush, international terrorist" (this year) - "The war in Aghanistan"/ "George bush, international terrorist" (last year) in their cons column, i mean i know that music is often Political and that it doesnt live in a vaccuum, but really lets just assume, as a default, that yr opposed to Bush/ War in Iraq and just let us know if you're NOT. Its a music mag ferchrissake.

jed (jed_e_3), Sunday, 21 December 2003 04:23 (twenty-one years ago)

FWIW, amateurist, I liked the one or two tracks I heard from Red Cross a lot. But I'm not very familiar with Fahey at all. (I heard two or three albums, but that was like 15 years ago or something.)

Rockist Scientist (rockistscientist), Sunday, 21 December 2003 04:43 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah well i don't mean to be some kind of purist (the notion of purism w/r/t to fahey is kind of contradictory anyhow) but i just don't find the newer stuff very interesting in practice.... but i'll be willing to try out the new one if ever i should happen across it.

amateur!st (amateurist), Sunday, 21 December 2003 13:17 (twenty-one years ago)

jed, otm, even though i think i've done exactly that two years in a row now. next year maybe i'll find a more obscure cause to trumpet - save the rhinos, maybe.

philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Sunday, 21 December 2003 19:29 (twenty-one years ago)

ha philip you could probably make saving rhinos sound like the most cutting-edge, glamorous thing ever! dude i would read it!

geeta (geeta), Sunday, 21 December 2003 19:34 (twenty-one years ago)

what geeta said!

cozen (Cozen), Sunday, 21 December 2003 19:35 (twenty-one years ago)

what cozen said.

jed (jed_e_3), Sunday, 21 December 2003 19:49 (twenty-one years ago)

slurp slurp

fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 21 December 2003 22:24 (twenty-one years ago)

num num

cozen (Cozen), Sunday, 21 December 2003 22:26 (twenty-one years ago)

what fiddo said. I mean, for fuck's sake.

Broheems (diamond), Sunday, 21 December 2003 22:28 (twenty-one years ago)

nah, death to smoochy already did that. i'm late to the party, i'm afraid.

philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Monday, 22 December 2003 01:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Laibach made it into the list?!? Have to give it another listen..

Baaderist (Fabfunk), Monday, 22 December 2003 10:15 (twenty-one years ago)

bailey, wyatt and dr phibes
