Your Top Albums Of 2006 So Far?

[muffledscreams]

Yeah, I'm kinda grossed out at how much Nelly Furtado seemingly sold out. She went from this cute, boho sorta girl, with an interesting voice to

 

To someone with skanky vocals, clothes, crappy covers, who can't dance (Did you see the Maneater video? Can you say Elaine Dance? *shudder*)

haha. i agree! ...the elaine dance! i haven't pictured that for years.

 

a few of my favorites from this year are:

 

park "building a better ____"

far-less "everyone is out to get us"

lakes "photographs ep"

saosin (self-titled)

[Some Random]

further amendment: i have to add brand new to my list. i don't think there's anything else coming out this year worthing checking out, so my final list is looking like:

 

incubus: light grenades

stone sour: come what(ever) may

brand new: the devil and god are raging inside me

emily haines: knives don't have your back

elvis costello & allen toussaint: the river in reverse

 

it was looking like '06 would suck until lately.

[HoboFactory]

Finally, a 2006 album has really impressed me. Just came out today, and I'm sure few if any here have heard of it. "From a Late Night High Rise" by Matthew Ryan.

it's one of my least favorite songs on the album. but it's still an AMAZING album.

Dangermouse is cool YO

[Hyphnip]

he is. the DangerDoom album left something to be desired but I think that is mostly because of all the adult swim voices that were in it. it kinda ruined the flow of the music.
