Ya se acerca fin de año, y ya los medios musicales especializados publicaron las tradicionales listas con los discos más destacados de 2007. Más allá de los nombres repetidos (LCD Soundsystem, M.I.A., Radiohead, PJ Harvey, Arcade Fire) llama la atención los ninguneos mutuos entre la prensa estadounidense y la británica: para los primeros, discos como los de Arctic Monkeys y Klaxons no son ni remotamente tenidos en cuenta, y lo mismo para con el hip hop para los periodistas insulares. Una vez más, para discutir, asentir, agregar o sacar, estos son los discos del año para los principales medios musicales del mundo. ¿Cuáles son los tuyos?
