Idolator poll crowns LCD Soundsystem, Rihanna, Radiohead

 It's consensus time! A few times a year, music critics, like Democrats worried that their bickering has gone too far, can reach something approaching agreement about what music was good. The Idolator poll, which tallied the votes of 451 critics this year, is out today and its voters awarded  best album to LCD Soundsystem's "Sound of Silver," best single to Rihanna's "Umbrella," and artist of the year to Radiohead. (My ballot is here, Backstage Pass pal and Newsday contributor J. Edward Keyes has his here. And you can check out the Backstage Pass 2007 recap here.)
