ALBUMS OF THE YEAR

It's that time of year when critics start listing their opinion of which of this years albums are the most objectively valuable pieces of artwork. Personally, every year I get less sure I know what that might mean, or who could be qualified to recognize such a thing. Anyway what I am sure of is which albums I ENJOYED listening to the most this year, so I made a list of them. There may well have been 'better' albums released this year but these are the one's I'll remember:


Meet Me In St Louis - Variations on Swing


Radiohead - In Rainbows


Burial - Untrue


The Good, The Bad and The Queen


Dillinger Escape Plan - Ire Works


The Cribs - Men's Needs, Women's Needs, Whatever


Reuben - In Nothing We Trust


Frank Turner - Sleep is for the Week


Jamie T - Panic Prevention


Jeffrey Lewis - 12 Crass Songs



Battles - Mirrored


Tinariwen - Aman Iman

still on my to do list: band of horses, MIA, arctic monkeys, iliketrains, beirut

so what have I missed out on?
