My favourite album of 2009 is Rowland S Howard - Pop Crimes. It's an immensely powerful slow burn.

Other albums that have copped a bit of repeat play from me this year are:
Black Cab - Call Signs
Tom Waits - Glitter and Doom
Mick Medew and The Rumours - All Your Love
The New Christs - Gloria

 

[groga]

Built to spill - There Is No Enemy.

Built to spill - There Is No Enemy.

tis a good album, but not a patch on their early work, such a shame

i really loved death is my only friend by death by stereo

Also enjoyed Ursa Major, but i found that there were only 3-4 decent to good tracks, and the others i didnt particullarly like. But one thing that i'm a little concerned about from third eye blind is the fact that Ursa Minor will basically be the tracks that failed to make it to Ursa Major. Hopefully they prove me wrong
