and that's off the top of my head. There are a ton of better albums out there, and I used to be a big LP fan.

You could argue that about half of those bands you listed have the exact same sound...and I know it's obvious that indie rock is the only kind of music that matters and is supposedly "cool," (even though the majority of the music listening population has never heard of the bands nor their music), but your list only holds up to the readers of Spin and Rolling Stone, even including the token reference to Radiohead and Outkast to make it seem justifiable.
I know hating nu-metal, rap/rock bands is in right now, but the fact remains everyone and their mom bought a copy of Hybrid Theory when it came out, and there has been nothing before or after that sounds anything like it. But ya know, different strokes for different folks...
