I was still at work with other people and had to close it immediately.

Never ceases to amaze me how varied opinions are on an indie board.  For instance: BSP, maybe in my top ten of all time, and yet some hate it (I bought mine  in the middle of '03 though, so not sure what we're talkin' about).  Fiery Furnaces... come on! unless you are a pitchfork wannabe, this is just plain graphic art best viewed via blindfold.  Antics settled with me better than turn on the bright lights.  Yes it is more poppy, but in a good way.  Modest mouse was selling out without going all the way to hades for it.  It allowed people like myself who never gave MM a chance before to listen... and like it.  I think Franz is a good album but overrated.  Same with Arcade Fire, but then how can anything reach that bar many have set.  TV on the radio does something for me.  Stellastarr as well.  Yeah Yeah Yeahs I put up there.  The worst: Atomic Bomb, but hey... it's U2, so it's still worth another ticket to another show this spring.

I couldn't disagree more.  Blemish was a tremendous step forward for Sylvian. He managed to make music that was dramatically different from his previous efforts without losing his identity. And the results were phenomenal. [/b]
I feel the same; this album is brilliant

Best: Wilco/"Ghost"
 Worst: Juniorboys "Last Exit" (overrated, boring, wimpy, amateur crap)

This is alway so tough for me because something just as good gets left out and a lot of it depends on my mood at any given time.
 
 Best of 2004:
 (Tied for 1st place)
 DestroyAllDreamers - A Coeur Leger Sommeil Sanglant
 Bark Psychosis - Codename: Dustsucker

 
 (Tied for 2nd place)
 Highspire - Your Everything
 Trespassers William - Different Stars
 Ulrich Schnauss - A Strangely Isolated Place
 Rachel Goswell - Waves Are Universal

 (See, I can't make up my mind!)
 
 Worst of 2004:
 (...?...)
 I could name loads of crap that has been put out but nothing all that bad that I bought really stands out. They just aren't quite as good as the better ones.

Best: Umphrey's Mcgee - Anchor Drops
 
 I don't think there's anything I didn't like that I bought but I could also probably name some shitty albums that I've heard.

Actually I liked it so much better than their last two.  They were really getting away from the sound that made their first two records so great.
