How can anyone defend this garbage? The Wire is literally no different than Billboard and MTV. It's just the indie™ version. There's nothing remotely "underground", "avant-garde", or "experimental" about it.

Blink-182 is back together and making music? lol

m83 put out an album this year???

Also this list is almost completely trash. That Lady Gaga album was boring as hell and I was /really/ ready to love it.

Literally who is wire and why is their taste so awful and mainstream?

Where's Jason Aldean - They Don't Know

That's not their actual list, though

>"The Wire is the most intellectually stimulating publication for avant-garde, underground, and experimental music and art"
>has never covered or reviewed EAI, free jazz, drone or any similar typed music before
>puts out this year end list
What a joke. Just a bunch of hipsters trying to be the next Pitchfork.
