Post Re: Best of 2009 lists
I can't think of 10 albums worth thinking about listing as "best" of anything that hit this year. I'm straining to think of 5. I'm also super picky. I'm a hater, I'll admit it. But it's because I love so much.

- Raveonettes "In and Out of Control"
- Municipal Waste "Massive Aggressive"
- Skeletonwitch "Breathing the Fire"

That's seriously all I can think of that I liked this year. I might think of something else but everything else coming to mind isn't list-worthy to me.

Definitely a lackluster year, though that seems to increase the older I get - not sure if it's just my jadedness or the music itself. However, these were good:
Future of the Left: Travels . . .
Mount Vicious: Don't Be A Baby, Come And Get It
Kelly Clarkson: All I Ever Wanted
Obits: I Blame You
Plus a load of reissues, older stuff etc. Haven't heard the new Jesu records but I loved the first few. Have to check them out.

La Roux is a mega guilty pleasure for me.
If I get home pissed, there is just about nothing that will keep me from driving my neighbours nuts with Tigerlily cranked.

Otherwise, I am supremely unimpressed with much of the new music I have heard this year.
