The end of the year that is, when most publications and websites pull together their Best Of lists. Being privy enough to have a website, and a few minutes to spare, here are my fave albums of the year:
1. Cat Power - Jukebox (EDIT: song of the year - Metal Heart)
2. Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
3. Plants And Animals - Parc Avenue
(big gap, then...)
4. Samamidon - All Is Well
5. Hayden - In Field And Town
And albums I had to scratch from my list because they came out last year (even though I listened to them for most of this year):
The Acorn - Glory Hope Mountain
Wintersleep - Welcome To The Night Sky
Jenn Grant - Orchestra For The Moon
Holy Fuck - LP
And top albums I'm sure I'd love but never had a chance to hear - a speculative Best Of, if you will (any of these would make a great Christmas gift, cough cough):
The Verve - Forth
Mogwai - The Hawk Is Howling
Tomcat Combat - I'm Okay, You're Okay
Q-Tip - The Renaissance
EDIT: Woops, forgot about Sigur Rós - Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust (have fun asking for that one at HMV)
Thus concludes today's bout of self-indulgence. Please comment with your favourites.
Please.
