It is list time again! I have been really busy so these are starting a little late. So I didn’t get a lot of new music this year sadly 😦 I also heard a lot of new bands but didn’t get a chance to pick up their albums and really listen to them, oops. It was a battle for the last few albums, but here is the final outcome; the top 13 albums that I got this year.
<BAND> – <ALBUM>
Monsters of Folk – Monsters Of Folk
The Decemberists – The Hazards Of Love
Muse – The Resistance
The View – Which Bitch
Arctic Monkeys – Humbug
Seabird – Rocks Into Rivers
The Maccabees – Wall Of Arms
M. Ward – Hold Time
Andrew Bird – Noble Beast
Franz Ferdinand – Tonight
Mute Math – Armistice
Conor Oberst – Outer South
Animal Collective – Merriweather Post Pavilion
So there we have it the Top 13 Albums of 2009. Let me know what you think of the list.
Honorable mentions : Flight of the Conchords – I Told You I Was Freaky, Bob Dylan – Together Through Life, Sufjan Stevens- The BQE, Depeche Mode – Sounds Of The Universe, U2 – No Line On The Horizon
Very interesting – Animal Collective blew my mind; listened to M.Ward almost daily for about a month straight; I was disappointed with Oberst. Make sure to check out Passion Pit if you haven’t already – also Mumford & Sons “Sigh No More” can be described as EPIC FOLK
I think I came a little late to the Animal Collective party, so I didn’t really get to listen to it as much as I would have liked. M. Ward is a beast and he has been on my list three times in different forms in the last two years, and is one of the key reasons MoF is my number one. I agree that this Oberst Album wasn’t as good as last years, there were a few truly awesome songs on there that I listened to a ton.
I’ll check out those guys, I love new music!
