I always seem to wait until the end, and then get influenced by other's
lists. So I wanted to get this out early this year so that it's as free
of outside influence as it can be.
The first 5 are pretty strong in their positions, with the other 15
floating about on a day to day basis.
The 88 and The Bats may have gotten a bit higher, but I only just
discovered them thanks to discussions here in the past week or so.
The entries marked with an * are albums that are available on eMusic,
for those of you with memberships there. (if you like the Decemberists,
give Micah P. Hinson a try)
1. Kaiser Chiefs "Employment"
2. The Hot Rocks s/t *
3. Architecture in Helsinki "In Case We Die" *
