that's 3 too many ... i also thought M83's list was interesting, i was expecting a much more underground indie electronic list from gonzalez

hehe, that's funny. [/b]

Clearly, my lack of knowledge of Brazilian music is showing through.
 
 I like that Allmusic points out that his music was widely considered "elevator music."

His own album, and the Knitters album.

...and Liam Lynch's "United States of Whatever," which came out in 2003, I think.

And the Artic Monkeys.  Never thought he would be keeping up on such new music.

Art Brut is coming on real strong here at the end of the year. Good stuff, especially if you like the Fall.

I believe that Markie's disappearences are a result of him going out and touring in support of that record.

To see my #1, read today's DC Examiner. To see the rest of my list, check this thread late next week.

It's probably going to be that awful gutter-urchin Nellie McKay.

Apparently, todays issues is not yet available online. They had two editors pick top ten lists, as well as a separate hip hop list, a worst of, and a best of the rest (comps, live albums, etc). They also had a small section of reader picks, including mine, with small blurbs.
 
 I think they pretty much destroyed their cred when one of the editors chose Fall Out Boy as his best album of the year.

I pray, as does all DC Examiner readers, that there was no picture published.

They insisted.

Anyone who's name is also a children's cereal doesn't hold much weight with me.

my favorite posted below ... it's almost like he had no idea that any music was released outside of major labels this year ... the beck reference is hilarious ...
