Looks like I've kind of neglected this blog... whoops. Let's get back into it. A whole year has passed since I last posted, so to follow up my top albums of 2010, here's my top albums of 2011! With links included so you can check them out. Not in any order this year, just things that I loved and listened to over and over! Also I should say top releases, 'cause not all of them are albums:
Circle Takes the Square - Decompositions Vol. 1, Chapter 1: Rites of Initiation.
(only an ep/the first part of their upcoming album. But probably my favourite thing of the whole year.)
Bomb the Music Industry! - Vacation!
Adalita - Adalita
Fuck The Facts - Die Miserable
Thursday - No Devolucion
Glassjaw - Our Colour Green / Colouring Book (2 EPs count as one album, right?)
Harmony - Harmony
WILD FLAG - Wild Flag
Battles - Gloss Drop
Russian Circles - Empros
Saul Williams - Volcanic Sunlight
Raein - Sulla linea dell'orizzonte fra questa mia vita e quella di tutti gli altri
Ouch My Face - Build a House / Eyeball to Eyeball (Only a single, but what a single!)
and Death by Death Ray - Here is the Revolution! (only a single again,
and a bit of shameless self-promotion, but it's the best recording I've
ever done, so gotta plug it somehow!)
