Sound In The Signals

These albums are the albums that we think have stood out over this past decade. Some of them have been extremely popular with a large amount of listeners, while others have found niche audiences. This list came down to basic enjoyment and time spent listening. It is not a list based on chart success or album sales. For this list, we decided to make the hard choice of only including one album per artist meaning if the artist released two great albums this decade we made the tough choice of deciding which one was the best one to be represented on this list. It was a tough call to make, but in the end we thought it would be more fairly balanced by doing it this way. The top 50 albums are pictured and the remainder are listed below. Thanks for taking the time to check out our picks. We hope you enjoy seeing albums you've loved while hopefully also coming across some albums you might have missed.
