Kristian Melom of Minor Kingdom: Favorite Albums of the Decade

radiohead kid a

1) Radiohead Kid A: This record pretty much changed the way I thought about recorded music. The textures and nuances that hit your ear, especially when wearing headphones, were incomparable to anything that I ever heard before. [Purchase]

2) Yo La Tengo And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out: One of the best records to put on during a fall/winter afternoon. These guys can do no wrong in my mind. [Purchase]

3) Wilco Yankee Hotel Foxtrot: Jim O’Rourke, who produced this record, pretty much made this one happen for me. He used some pretty non-conventional production that really separated this band from its previous efforts. [Purchase]

4) Sufjan Stevens Seven Swans: Emo in its best form. Once I realized how influenced his words were by his religious views it became a little eerie but beautiful none the less. [Purchase]

5) Sigur Rós Takk: This band instantly puts me in mood where I want to create, or travel, or climb a mountain in Iceland! They are not afraid to use space in their music and it has been one of their most powerful tools. [Purchase]
