Top Albums of 2009: Part I
Tom:
Yeah, the spirit of the album feels half-baked but the arrangements seem over done. It's sprawling in a way that it washes over you, but doesn't envelop. Some great singles in there but then again that's what I thought of Yellow Room and now I love it. This is definitely going to be a grower.
Halitosis:
My top 10
Hatcham Social - You Dig the Tunnel, I'll Hide the Soil
DD/MM/YYYY - Black Square
Dan Deacon - Bromst
Japandroids - Post-Nothing
Morrissey - Years of Refusal
Telefon Tel Aviv - Immolate Yourself
Fever Ray
Silversun Pickups - Swoon
The Horrors - Primary Colours
Casiotone for the Painfully Alone - Vs. Children
This year is amazing so far.

Reservoir by Fanfarlo. Best album I have heard in years. Seriously. Like, Beirut and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Sufjan Stevens and Arcade Fire and everything all rolled into one. But actually really as good as that ought to be, and not in an overhyped, media-ish way. "The Walls Are Coming Down" is as good a song as you'll ever hear. Really.
