All of my favorite bloggers are posting their year end lists, so on day three of this site, I figured I’d post my own. I’ll be honest. My original plan was to put together a full top 10 list, but I just couldn’t come up with 10 albums from this past year that I’m actually excited about. But I really enjoyed these seven (in no particular order):
1. Acrade Fire – The Suburbs
2. LCD Sound System – This is Happening
3. The Black Keys – Brothers
4. Broken Bells (Self Titled)
5. Kanye West – My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
6. Monsters of Folk (Self Titled)
7. Ok Go – Of the Blue Colour of the Sky
The best music video goes to Ok Go for doing ridiculous things with dogs:
And the weirdest video goes to Kanye. I don’t even know what to say. But I do know I would’ve loved to be a fly on the wall when he tried explaining this idea to his producer.
On a side note, I’m pretty sure nobody is actually reading this, but at least I now have a nice record of what music I enjoyed over the past year. And if anyone out there found my blog (mom?), post anything I missed in the comments.
