Top Albums of 2009: Part I

<< < (5/112) > >>

squawk:
I've been getting so dang lazy at keeping up with new releases for the past six to eight months... I don't really mind.

But this year I really really love The Thermals, Metric, Andrew Bird, Peter Bjorn and John, and Malajube.

and Johnny C's band! No really I have listened to that thing too much it is so addictive

Tehz:
The Pains of Being Pure At Heart self-titled is the only 2009 album I've bought thus far. I really need to get on the ball. I absolutely love POBPAH though.


I'm really looking forward to Farm by Dinosaur Jr., Around the Well by Iron and Wine, and The Eternal by Sonic Youth. Hell yes.

Tom:
So far it's really only been Sholi and Animal Collective who've actually got me real excited. There's been a fair number of good albums this year but none of them great - Andrew Bird, Carl Newman, Julie Doiron (her new one is pretty much like something from her old band, Eric's Trip), Decemberists, Wavves (I swear this actually came out last year) - and whole lotr of other one's that I've been told to give a rat's about but I just cbf to.

I'm pretty excited for new Arcade Fire, Blonde Redhead (no, really), Sunset Rubdown and hopefully, 'cause these guys are loathe to announce their recording plans, Frog Eyes.

Avec:
Stealing Peter Bjorn And John and adding it to my list. I almost forgot Living Thing came out in '09.
