seems like his annual 'hey check this out" discs are the only thing that's got me into a record store the past few years.... just sucks that over 50% of the records i bought in 2009, were not released in 2009.

I only bought a few albums released in 2009, but all of them were shot down by Kid Cudi - Man on the Moon- The End of Day. honestly the best album I've heard in a long time

Nice one Geoff!Totally agree on:


The Horrors "Primary Colours"
Dinosaur Jr "Farm"
Manic Street Preachers "Journal for Plague Lovers

and thats only because I havent heard teh other selections on your list.

Dino Jr and The Manics were also two of my favorite gigs this year - didn't hurt that the Manics played at the smallish Avalon in LA and I was front and center hung over the barrier for teh entire show! Awesome!

This year seemed very meh music wise (at least to me). One album that I really liked was the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs "Its Blitz".
