Kyp's revenge - 2006 Jackin' Pop / Pazz & Jop merged results
Someone combined the 2006 Idolator Jackin' Pop and 2006 Village Voice Pazz & Jop critics polls, and instead of Bob Dylan running over Kyp Malone, they came up with Dylan being murdered by Kyp, Ghostface, and even Hold Steady. This is their list:
1 TV on the Radio · Return to Cookie Mountain
2 Ghostface Killah · Fishscale
3 Hold Steady · Boys and Girls in America
4 Bob Dylan · Modern Times
5 Clipse · Hell Hath No Fury
6 Joanna Newsom · Ys
7 Gnarls Barkley · St. Elsewhere
8 Arctic Monkeys · Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not
9 Neko Case · Fox Confessor Brings the Flood
10 Cat Power · The Greatest
TV on the Radio also took the first spot at the Bloggregate, and the other bloggregate. So you might say that, unlike Ali Farka Toure's Savane, Return to Cookie Mountain is indeed the most "critically acclaimed album of 2006".

How many of these will anyone still be talking about two years from now?
One of the better essays in the Voice issue addressed the fact that these rock critics and their lists have been unseated by the democracizing effect of the internet.

Some will be talked about for years to come. Others will not.

"How many of these will anyone still be talking about two years from now?"
What does that have to do with them putting out a great album this year?

Nothing. But,
"Art is news that stays news"
Marcel Duchamp said that, I think.

Then I guess we'll have to wait two years to see who's news in two years.
