So there is my measly possession of what are supposed to be the best albums of the last twenty years. I don't know how much I agree with the list, but it is great to see a good deal of diversity there. I was especially glad to see that Pavement got onto the list. If you have any thoughts about what Spin left out, or what I get from the list that I don't have, let me know in the comments section below.
