Terza parte della serie che ricorda il (mio) meglio dei primi 10 anni del nuovo millennio appena trascorsi: è la volta degli album musicali. Sono tutti album di band, o comunque non di artisti singoli, tre debutti di qualità, una seconda opera e solo gli U2 e i Red hot chili peppers che resistono dal secolo precedente. Il genere da me maggiormente selezionato è l’alternative rock, praticamente l’evoluzione del pop rock stile Dire Straits negli anni 2000. Solo il tempo dirà se questi album diventeranno davvero dei classici, oppure se finiranno per essere come molti altri solo il ricordo di una stagione. Ecco comunque la mia playlist dei dischi da ricordare.
