i don't have my records/cds near me so i'm just going by memory. 1. the tuss - rushup edge the only thing truly to excite me this year, electronic musics-wise. love the fan vid with the skateboarders. 2. battles - mirrored heartless, clinical, brutal (brutal live, at least). the rock equivalent of autechre. 3. sunset rubdown - random spirit lover opposite of battles, pure emotion in music form. 4. of montreal - hissing fauna, are you the destroyer? i picked up this album thinking it would be another throwaway pop trinket like satanic panic, good for only a few pleasant listens, but it turned out to be so much more. 5. blonde redhead - 23 very rich in atmosphere thanks to the over-the-top production. catchy songs. 6. radiohead - in rainbows radiohead for people who have grown out of radiohead. 7. feist - the reminder voice conquers all. 8. m.i.a - kala messy gooshness. 9. deerhunter - cryptograms they have no actual, unifying style of their own, but they have good taste in which bands and songs they appropriate. 10. interpol - our love to admire completely trashy album that shouldn't be on any top ten list. band members are total douchebags and their music strives to be fleeting. |

in no order radiohead - in rainbows surprisingly great. cd2 is still disappointing, but cd1 is really good. reckoner is the track that sneaked up on me and took me by the throat after a few listens. pj harvey - white chalk took a few listens, but has proved to be really great. has a unique sonic expression to it, almost comatose. sandro perri - tiny mirrors totally fucking overlooked, it seems. which is a massive shame, seeing as it's absolutely deserving of a top ranking and whatever. brilliant songs and a sound that reminds me of the 60s and the 00s melted together. at least get the track 'family tree' from it, bastards! bad religion - new maps of hell while the production is too loud/atrocious, bad religion manage to create even more catchy, awesome hardcore punk tracks. it's a fun, exciting album and never really drops off. despite having ridiculously compressed sound it shines brilliantly because of the songwriting. too many good picks to mention. björk - volta if only for wanderlust! i wish dull flame would go back to being electronic, but it's still nice. the album is pretty 'seaside' at times, with the fog horns or whatever those are. it's less immediately catchy overall, but it feels like a true 'album' and it unravels (HA!) more over several listens. weedeater - god luck and good speed albini recording stoner metal? yeah, i guess. awesome, energetic album that's loud without being obnoxious. this genre gets a lot of samey shit, but this really is a great listening experience throughout. especially wizard fight and weed monkey. oh, and alone. a great break about halfway through, nice move there. the tuss - rushup edge the only internet phenomenon ranking above youtube at the moment. nice "album", although a few of the more "obvious" tracks get a bit tiring after a short while. the more rewarding ones seem more threatening at first. shiz ko e is definitive. bla bla... more later. out of words. |

animal collective - strawberry jam a hell of an album. so catchy, so right, so energetic! i hadn't checked out any AC until i heard this, so it was a really pleasant surprise. winter wonder land is a good start, my fav+ track. afx - scooter remixes when i first heard about this, i thought it would be more akin to his 2 remixes by afx style of tunes. turns out i was completely right, as these are basically just those two/three tracks mixed together at various lengths. essential! ted leo & the pharmacists - living with the living hadn't really heard of ted leo either until this album, but it was put out on touch & go so i thought i'd give it a whirl. i'm happy i did, as it's super catchy, solid rock music with little slack. well, a few tracks are pretty dull/annoying, but that doesn't detract too much. i even like 'unwanted things', which most people seemed to hate! shellac - excellent italian greyhound shellac is still fucking awesome. i think this album shows that steve albini really should more involved in music as a musician, we need another fucking rapeman album. stat. the only weak point on this is 'genuine lulabelle', it drags on for too long, and the sampling gets annoying. it could be a nice 2-3 minuter, but it's just like listening to bad avantgarde for most of the time. marco polo - port authority really, really good "oldschool" hiphop album. overlooked too, tracks like 'war' and 'nostalgia' are fucking hits. requests - new jesus lizard album. - new rapeman album. - new plaid album that doesn't feel rushed/shit. - new LFO album. - new aphex album. - new justin timberlake single produced by luke vibert. - radiohead redo their fucking atrocious recording of 'up on the ladder'. - analord 12-15 - the beatles catalogue remasters (i hope they won't sound shit) - ice cube loses his mind and records something like his first albums. - that the new dr. dre album isn't shit. - bob dylan gets his voice fixed. - a new µ |
