I think I’ve edited this to hell and back again. I’m just gonna push “post”. These are some of my favorite albums of the last decade. The list is by no means comprehensive. I could include more. Scroll down to the bottom for a playlist if you want to assemble your own. (note, I’m hearing [...]
Yeah, I’m late, but I might as well type up this list before we’re much further into 2010. It seemed like kind of a dull year for music. I did a lot of back-filling which should make for an even more compelling Best of the Oughts if I can ever get around to writing that. [...]
