Yes, those lists are useless and you'd expect even the walls to have realized that, by now. It's the same fucking BeachBeatlesRoses drone, and they are generally compiled by deaf music journalists who still haven't understood that music moves on, even if its pace seems slow. Also, those same journalists and their ignorant general public seem to understand good music only if it happens with some sort of movement that embraces fashion, aesthetics, or some drugs. That's true or was true for some years, but the times change, and wether we like it or not, it's a different matter altogether. Tell that to AlanfuckingMcGee or people of that ilk, who seem to forcedly make themselves think that you just need some drug addict on the rampage, in order to see punk (yawn) coming back to life.
