Here goes....a year of terrific music made this a tough assignment...sincere thanks to all these great artists for absolutely stellar cds (and many others who fell just below the top 20 with releases nearly as great- you know who you are because I've probably contacted you off-list):
1. Eugene Edwards - My Favorite Revolution (Tallboy)
2. Chris Richards - Mystery Spot (Dogbunny / Jam)
3. Rosenbergs - Department Store Girl (Force MP)
4. Silver Sun - Disappear Here (Invisible Hands)
5. Features - Exhibit A (Universal)
6. Cliff Hillis - Better Living Through Decompression (Tall Boy)
7. Bowman - Living to Dream (Self Released)
8. Todd Bowie - Lucky Space People (Machine)
9. Jellybricks - Power This (Kool Kat)
10. Argument - Recess Serenade (Self Released)
11. Fastball - Keep Your Wig On (Universal)
12. Michael Carpenter - Rolling Ball (Not Lame)
13. Knacker - Picture / Show (Landed)
14. John Hoskinson - Miscellaneous Heathen (Kaopeoths)
15. Doug Powell - Day for Night (Parasol)
16. Well Wishers - Twenty-Four Seven (Not Lame)
17. Davenports - Hi-Tech Lowlife (MotherWest)
18. Marlowes - Glue, Glitter and Shine (Shiny Fly)
19. Breakup Society - James at 35 (Get Hip)
20. Adam Marsland - You Don't Know Me (Karma Frog)
Action Pact by Sloan was at #3, but although I was rating the 2004 US release, I think it came out in 2003 in Canada, making it ineligible. If this release does qualify, please reinsert at #3 and shift those beneath it down one slot.
The following definitely would have been in the top 10 if it wasn't a compilation of previously released / unreleased tunes:
Mike Ruekberg (of Rex Daisy) - Acrimony and Cheese (Self Released)
Best wishes to all Audities members in 2005.
