Pitchfork Albums of the 2010: Honorable Mentions (albums that didn't enter the top 50)

Swans just realized Pitchfork denied them the Top 50.
And they're not happy.


What:
Pitchfork Top 50 Albums of 2010 list is getting close. But first, it's time to honorably mention those albums that "made a strong run to our Top 50" and "deserve a bit more praise and notice". Official Pitchfork page is here. Below you find them under Spotify treatment.

Comments:
No chart ranking: albums are in alphabetical order. Most notable presences are Grinderman, Liars and Swans, who managed to climb several other top 50 of the year. Enjoy!
