It's still early but I thought FEVER RAY had it in the bag.
NOW i have to say TAROT SPORT by F*CK BUTTONS is the front runner. Such an amazing album. Like an electronic GODSPEED YOU BLACK EMPEROR.
Anyone else have some suggestions?

I don't think that I've been out and bought an album (CD) by any particular artist in the last 5 years...and that's the truth. I just download whatever I feel I need from t'internet.

'Tarot Sport' is a good lp but it isn't all that innovative - plenty of that ilk about - listen to Kid 606 and Neil Landstrumm. I get through lps pretty quick but my fave British lps of the year (on play counts anyway) are 'Where were U in 92?' by Zomby , and 'Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do' by Major Lazer
ATM I'm loving 'Look Mum, No hands by Mix n Blend who are South African, only heard it a few times though as only been out a few days but 'Cozza Friendly' by Bassnecter, which again hasn't been out that long, they are American, is prob my fave of the year. |

Is the Callahan album only for die hard Smogs fans then?
Any suggestions for an intro to them? I quite like the Jason Lytle album Yours truly,the commuter but I loved Grandaddy. |

Smog fans will like it but it's not a patch on the smog stuff. Quite liked the Jason lytle album too.

im not sure ive even heard an album released this year. i like music...and i do buy albums...but i cant think of any this year...

Some fantastic new songs this year from old and new artists (e.g. Doves, Mos Def, Wilco, Phoenix)
unfortunately very little in the way of decent albums. Most pleasure gained from a Motown cash-in (?) album Michael Jackson - 'The Stripped Mixes' Most of the instrumentation has been set back or taken away and the pure talent of a young Michael shines through http://open.spotify.com/track/2qWVZQcTvNk4Yi27PEBdeS |

terrible year for music. |

Anybody who is in to music should be grateful to be around at this time as there is so much good stuff around (from all over the world) and it's never been easier to get hold of it. I don't buy into this 'music is rubbish atm' that people repeat often as if you can be bothered to think outside the box a bit and do a bit of hunting there is some great stuff out there. There is also more dross about and a lot of music has become formulaic but personnaly I've never been into the mainstream anyway so wouldn't listen to it. 'Emusic' is a good (legal) download site and only 20p a track which I'm prepared to pay as the quality is usually good and for those with a 'leftfield' taste in music has a good library to choose from.

Have to agree with Spyker...although if you are prepared to dig around every year has its fair share of good music.
Personally I like the new ***k Buttons album but prefer Street Horrrsing (a bit heavier) The 3 best bands live I have seen this year tho are Bombay Bicycle Club (check out I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose)....Darker My Love (check out 2)....and Silversun Pickups (check out Swoon and Carnavas). |
