1 Yo La Tengo - And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-out Autumn is my favorite time of the year. After all, autumn is when the frivolity of summer turns serious with the waning sunlight. The leaves come alive in new and surprising colors with a willful determination to survive -- if only to hold on a little bit longer. The skin-clad girls of summer begin to take notice of the need for clothing; style is back in style. And the chill in the air forces you to be conscious of every breath. So it is no coincidence then that my favorite album from this decade, Yo La Tengo's And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-out, opens by heralding the end of summer ("Everyday"): I want summer's sad songs behind me / I want to laugh a minute without fail To equate summer with sadness is plain nonsense for most conventional minds. But for, us, the children of Hank Williams, Nick Drake, and Lou Reed, this sounds like the words of a sage. I've spent more hours and minutes with And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-out than with any other album from this decade. An album that stands by your side for 10 years, in all and every occasion, is something to behold (some friendships don't last as long). It sounds good in the morning with coffee and its contemplative lyrics give relief to the confusion of days. The music settles in with you when the lights are dimming. In these 10 years, this album was for me like the bottle is for the alcoholic (or the Bible is for the fanatic). For a band that is no stranger to raucous guitar freak-outs and noisy codas, the music here patiently waits its turn to turn and explores the subtle ways in quiet things can be quite deafening. The thick roar of guitars and bashed drums move aside -- if for a moment -- for muted, brushed drums and hushed voices. The glory of the rock and roll spectacle gives way to the drama of the everyday. And like cinema verite, there's a lot more lurking in ordinary things. When the band finally dials up the volume, it feels like nothing less than the reinvention of rock and roll ("Cherry Chapstick"). In these songs, Yo La Tengo infuse the parlor drama of domestic and personal discord with their well-known irreverence and pop culture erudition. They name-check the likes of Paul Le Mat (look it up), Kate Moss, and Anita Ward; make oblique references to Thomas Pynchon, the Who's "I Can't Explain," and some unspecified song that goes "Let's be happy/Don't be lonely"; and even manages to give script to a fictional film from an episode of The Simpsons ("Let's Save Tony Orlando's House"). And after 60 minutes of richly-carved music, Yo La Tengo add another layer of drama with the set closer, "Night Falls in Hoboken." What starts out as a thoughtful, if oblique, acoustic folk number slowly dissolves into a cascading pool of undulating dissonance and feedback. But there's no roar here, just small waves of sound dissolving into sound. 17 minutes later, and nearly 12 minutes after the last lyric is heard, the music settles into a whir of accidental loops set to a gentle patter of percussions. It sounds like this can go to infinity and to my ears, the music never ends. I don't want to bore you with the minute (and long-winded) details from the remainder of my list. Here then are other albums from this decade (or century, if you will) that I loved (this one goes to 20): 2 Joanna Newsom - Ys 3 Gillian Welch - Time (The Revelator) 4 Radiohead - In Rainbows 5 Low - Things We Lost in the Fire 6 Modest Mouse - The Moon and Antarctica 7 Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot 8 Ryan Adams - Heartbreaker 9 Björk - Vespertine 10 Joanna Newsom - The Milk-Eyed Mender 11 Lambchop - Is a Woman 12 Sleater-Kinney - All Hands on the Bad One 13 Radiohead - Kid A 14 Tom Waits - Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers, and Bastards 15 Low - Trust 16 Beth Orton - Comfort of Strangers 17 Matt Sweeney & Bonnie "Prince" Billy - Superwolf 18 The Yeah Yeah Yeahs - It's Blitz! 19 Bob Dylan - Modern Times 20 Califone - King Heron Blves Special Jury Prize: Neil Young for Greendale and Living with War - The Old Man filled this decade with two of the strangest albums ever committed to wax cylinder, tape or hard drive: the former is a novel about a small-town American family that is set to rock songs, and the latter is a cycle of anthems that reflect on the war in Iraq, backed by a large choir. In terms of sheer conviction and moxie, Neil Young struck gold. The Short-Listed: Meg Baird - Dear Companion Bob Dylan - "Love and Theft" PJ Harvey - White Chalk Willie Nelson - You Don't Know Me: The Songs of Cindy Walker Jim O'Rourke - Indifference Sparklehorse - It's a Wonderful Life Yo La Tengo - Sounds of the Sounds of Science

In honor of the release of "Lost Girls" (which actually won't come out in the UK until Jan, ), Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie gave a talk at the Institute of Education in London. The talk was moderated by "comedian, broadcaster and comic fan" Stewart Lee.
