Although now quite comfortably (actually, is anyone comfortable during The Great Freeze of 2010?) into the next decade, it’s still cool to talk about the last decade of music. And if it’s not cool, then hopefully we get away with being so uncool that we’re actually quite cool. And if that doesn’t happen, then I don’t want to be cool anyway. Where am I? Yes. Albums of the decade. The latest one is written by Morgan Meaker and her choice is Fur and Gold by Bat For Lashes. What follows are her lovely thoughts and words on said album:
The Recession, 9/11, The Internet, Terrorism, George Bush, July 7th 2005, Big Brother, Reality Television, Social Networking, Celebrity, Tony Blair, Online Shopping, The First Black President, The Smoking Ban, I-Pods, Borat, Banksy, Chavs…
In no chronological or logical order, these are just some of the things that the decade dubbed “the noughties” may be remembered for.
The latest album in our best of the decade series is undoubtedly a masterpiece and the way it carved itself an alarmingly unique and powerful corner within music will surely make it one of the most talked about albums for years to come.
