I love Todd R's "Liars", but it floors me that it made any top 20 "pop" list. BTW, I included it in mine. :-)

I couldn't find a list from the last couple of years (2005 and 2006 --
perhaps Mike Bennett or someone else can re-post those), but
here's a list of the Audities Top 20's from a few recent years,
2002, 2003 and 2004 -- just in case anyone wants to refresh their
memory and think about fairly recent albums for their Top 200 list
(not that any of these would my my own personal Top 200 "best
power pop albums" list).
