Some of my favorites from this year: Tenacious D, Muse, Teenage Bottlerocket, Neon Trees, Jack White, Garbage

I should check out that new Cancer Bats record.

I've never really given those dudes as hot yet.

Days Go By is still my favorite, but the new NOFX album is pretty rad too.

North by MATCHBOX 20 has got a couple of half decent songs
NO DOUBT has one or one and a half good songs in there.
SOUNDGARDEN is solid kickass rock
DAYS GO BY is solid and I'm not being biased. BUt I can listen to the whole thing from start to end
LINKIN PARK has a couple of good songs too

Sell out artists who I will not ever buy any of their shit ever again, is Maroon 5 and probably TRAIN too. (Matchbox 20 getting real close to that section too)

In alphabetical because I can't make decisions:

Arms Of Ra - Unnamed (sick french post-hardcore/black metal)
Caspian - Waking Season (instrumental, great stuff)
Converge - All We Love We Leave Behind (heavy as fuck punk)
DEATH GRIPS - The Money Store (punk as fuck rap music, holy shit this album)
Dodecahedron - Dodecahedron (pure evil)
Glocca Morra - Just Married (tons of fun! this is a great record)
Hop Along - Get Disowned (this is probably the sleeper hit you guys need to hear this record)
John K Samson - Provincial (obviously, a wonderful songwriter)
Vijay Ayer Trio - Ascension (great jazz record, tons of replay value, great trio)




So many albums I wanted to listen to but didn't get a chance to. Oh well. Music is awesome this year.

Yea I can't decide the certain numbers this time either.
Other than number 1 being "Interstellar" by Frankie Rose

the rest in no particular order:
good kid, m.A.A.d. city by Kendrick Lamar
Comet by The Bouncing Souls
119 by Trash Talk
Zoo by Ceremony
Stoned Immaculate by Curren$y
Rebirth by Jimmy Cliff
Self-Entitled by NOFX
