Das 21. Jahrhundert: Die 30 besten Alben (von neuen Künstlern)

In Anlehnung an den Künstler-Thread von tops möchte ich hier eine Umfrage nach den besten Alben von Künstlern/Bands durchführen, deren Erstveröffentlichung im Jahr 2000 oder später veröffentlicht wurde. Also bitte nur Acts nennen, die vor dem Jahr 2000 unter ihrem Namen noch keine Platten veröffentlicht haben, weder Singles noch LPs.

Ich werte nur durchnummerierte und vollständige Listen aus und berücksichtige Updates nur, wenn die alte Liste mitzitiert wurde. Eine Auswertung erfolgt Anfang Januar, so dass noch sämtliche Veröffentlichungen aus diesem Jahr berücksichtigt werden können.
