[alex_madf3rit]

Alright, since I don't think anything of interest is being release within the next month I figure is good to start this. So, your top 10 songs and albums of 2009. On a personal note, I realized that I didn't buy that many albums that were released on 2009 so it was a bit hard to come up with that. I tried to make my top 10 as diverse as possible (cause I'm weird like that) so yea... oh yea, and I know I will probably take some beating for some of my choices but I don't really care so save it.

I thought Them Crooked Vultures was really boring, generic rock that sounded exactly as if you combined the bands those guys were in - the downfall of supergroups. Muse and Pearl Jam do nothing for me. Haha.

 

More people should post their lists! This is a good topic.

[johnerwin]

Great Lake Swimmers - Lost Channels

K-OS - Yes!

Pete Yorn - Back and Forth

Patrick Watson - Wooden Arms

Jay-Z - Blueprint 3

Mother Mother - Oh My Heart

Hayden - The Place Where We Lived

Alexisonfire - Old Crows/Young Cardinals

Bon Iver - Blood Bank EP

John Frusciante - The Empyrean

 

..not to mention Vancouver.. and Mother Mother's new album is great
