Favorite Albums Of 2009
Bask in the warm glow of my ten most favorite albums of 2009! In no particular order, they are:
1. Patrick Watson: WOODEN ARMS
2. Florence + The Machine: LUNGS
3. Yeah Yeah Yeahs: IT’S BLITZ
4. Bon Iver: BLOOD BANK
5. The XX: XX
6. Silversun Pickups: SWOON
7. Phoenix WOLFGANG AMADEUS PHOENIX
8. Jon Hopkins: INSIDES
9. Pete Yorn & Scarlett Johansson: BREAK UP
10. Lusine: A CERTAIN DISTANCE
It is a sure rarity for me to be doing something creative without headphones on and music blaring. The ten albums above are maybe not the best of 2010, but they are my favorites. They’re the albums that I found myself going back to time and again, the ones that stuck fast in my head.
I haven’t listened to all of these but you get super big ass head nods of agreement on Patrick Watson, Silversun Pickups and Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I go back and back and back again too.
Nice! The XX record lives up to the hype. Is it me or does the Phoenix album art look like a Threadless tee?
I would add The Gossip – Music for the Men and Fever Ray – Fever Ray
Sweet website! Love the artwork and overall design. Well done sir.
