I collected over 14 lists of the best albums of the 2010s decade from various sources and compiled them into one meta-list. Here are the results: every album on three or more of the original source lists, organized by rank (that is, with the albums on the most lists at the top). Please note: these are not my personal opinions and I have not listened to all this music. An asterisk indicates that I own the album.
