I wonder if any magazine/website in the world will not nominate Kanye West's My Dark Twisted Fantasy as the best album of the year.

Here are some of my best favourite albums of 2010.

- The Suburbs
- High Violet
- This is Happening

 

[Theseus Mock]

Women - Public Strain

I've seen these guys twice and both were awful. I had to leave after a few songs the second time.

Keith Fullerton Whitman - Generator
Aino Tytti - Fronte Praecipitum / Tergo Lupi
The Ex - Catch My Shoe
Fenn O'Berg - In Stereo
Yellow Swans - Going Places
Autechre - Move of Ten

No it doesn't. One is enough. I bet they're mad boring live as well.

tripod? Jaysus, thats some step up. I remember they played in crawdaddy. Seems like only the other month.

They were a bag of nerves that night. Can't imagine how they'll be in front of a full tripod crowd.

Yer one Emily is lovely though. She said that she loved and respected Irish culture because when she was little her mother bought her 4 albums - something by the cranberries, the joshua tree, something by clannad, and something by enya - and that she adored them and always wanted to visit Ireland.

chuckles could be heard around the room.

Wanna go see them together scutter? I'll act miserable and you'll act like you've seen it all before.

Ah, that Deathspell Omega is the business. Awaiting a vinyl of it in't post.

I do also like the new Urfaust.

I was listening to All Songs Considered and Carrie Browenstien picked it as hers.

really? didn't get to see them when they played. Would you be a fan of their recordings, or just not into them? Can't stop listening to the new album. Love the way they combine sort of Panda Bear wistfulness with noisier/mathsier tunes. They've split up now apparently.

Been a little bit of a disappointing year in that a lot of my favourite artists released sub-standard efforts. Great year for Irish bands though; Jogging, Adebisi and Boa Morte among my favourites.

Just giving their Myspace a try. Don't know what to make of them. Seems to be mostly old stuff though.

I do also like the new Urfaust.

ok I is John, but on 2 conditions;

1: I get to give evil stares to people not paying attention to the support act, even though I probably won't be that interested in them myself (*)
2: I repeatedly get to say really loud "THIS ISNT AS GOOD AS THE CRAWDADDY GIG"

(*) This is a newly revitalised pet hate since I went to the National gig and overheard some dick say during Phosphorescent, 'these lads would get more respect if they played some National covers'. The single most stupid comment I've possibly ever heard, let alone just at gigs.

Aeromodeller . Absolutely wonderful album. Should have been in my original list.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Andrew Kuo's favourite albums of 2010

Bloody artists, wha'?

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Not sure how he can hate the Gil Scott Heron track on Kanye's record as much as he loves the Chris Rock one.

If I'm reading the fucking thing right.

jaysus, haven't a clue what thats about

 

[Lili Marlene]

The best bit of the Vampire weekend album is certainly not contained within the title track
