Re: Pitchfork best 150 albums of the 90s (version 2022)

I much prefer the readers' songs poll results to the official Pitchfork list, and I'd say that's been the case every time they've released both over the last decade. Same here and same for the readers' albums poll results. My preference towards the readers' poll seems to grow with each passing year.
