I am a bit miffed that Paper Planes was rated over Galang (ie I know which one I'd rather listen to right now).

Apart from that, the list (all of it, not just the top 20) is about what I'd expect from Pitchfork but with a few pleasant surprises - e.g. there are four women in the top 10 which I doubt will be the case for the albums list.
