Corey's decade list part 1

I'm about a year late on this, but I didn't really have a place to post it until now. And while its true that Tbots beat me to the punch I still wanted to go through with posting my list of my favorite albums of the past decade. Creating this list was difficult, mostly because opinions do change about certain bands/albums as one crosses from teenage years to adulthood, but also because it was hard to decide on just 50 albums. I could have went on and had a much larger number as there are many albums that aren't on here that still deserve some credit, but I'll try to give notice to as many as I can. For this list I looked for albums that took me back to a certain place and time, something that I know had a huge impact on me at the time I heard it even if the impact has lessened since. I tried to do a fair a job as possible with this so I hope you enjoy.
