The final list that was referenced in the OP, a compiled list where people rated their favorite albums from 1996-2011:

I expected OK Computer to win but I didn't realize that Radiohead was as popular as this list indicates, at least among Pitchfork readers, a pseudo-hipster site for those who don't know.
