This week NME released the results of their 100 greatest albums of the decade poll, voted for by members of staff and industry figures. You can view the results here. This set withtheband thinking about what the people around us would choose if they had a say. Would the list be more diverse in its genres or would it be a similar lineup? Here’s your chance to help us answer that question. Please comment under this article with your TOP 5 albums of the decade (we would do 50 but we wouldn’t want to get in trouble for distracting you from your work for THAT long) Whatever your choices, we’d love to know. |
