knightni Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 I don't listen to much new music, but I will get a list sent off to you within the next few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Oh, I'm in on this. I'll submit tomorrow. Great idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 There are wikipedia links to the albums in question in the announcement link, if anyone is stumped about choosing 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHizzle85 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I love this idea. Already sent my list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Kickass Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 By the way, if you have an album in your list that you down anyone else has or even has heard of, let us know here. I would love to throw out serious props for the Curren$y albums and for the new Bran Van 3000 albums. Both very different albums with very different sounds, but they are really really great records worth a listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dom Kennedy's "From The Westside, With Love" is also a very good project. Edited January 4, 2011 by MHizzle85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) I don't listen to a lot of new music, but I had no idea I was so uninformed. I looked at the Wikipedia link, and I hardly recognized anything. I suppose I'll have to unfortunately sit this one out. But, I look forward to seeing the countdown and possibly finding some new music to listen to.

clyons Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) I'll put in a list, but in thinking about this, I realized that this year I listened to very few albums all the way through and even fewer repeatedly. I just don't have the time anymore. I used to buy CDs all the time, but I've probably become the poster child for the "just download a few singles" consumer that's hurting the music industry. Lord have mercy on my soul. Edited January 4, 2011 by PlaySumFnJurny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 That was easy. There was some amazing music this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there was, and that's why I'm looking forward to seeing the list. I have over 250 songs on my iPhone, and I bet not one is from the past few years. I'm sure I'm missing out on some good music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Haha, I'll have to sit this one out, too. I don't listen to (and don't like the vast majority of) new music. I also can't recall the last time I bought or listened to an entire album by anyone. Of the roughly 7,000 songs I have on my iPod, probably 6,800 were released during the 1990's or earlier.

The funniest thing, is that I think if we made this list six months from now, after the dust of the year settles, the list would probably be pretty different as well. It's funny how some albums tend to get better with age, and others just wither and get dated fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3E8 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Since I doubt any of my albums will make the final list: 1. The Gay Blades - Savages | "trash" pop | lushbeat.com = 4.5/5 2. Hellogoodbye - Would It Kill You? | power pop | USA Today = 3.5/4 3. You, Me, And Everyone We Know - Some Things Just Don't Wash Out | power pop | ap.net = 82/100 4. Tokyo Police Club - Champ | indie/garage rock | metacritic.com = 71/100 5. Circa Survive - Blue Sky Noise & Appendage EP | prog rock | sputnik.com = 4.5/5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogan873 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 The only band I recognized was Mumford and Sons, and that was only because my wife had downloaded one of their songs. I've heard a few songs since then, and I like what I've heard. Sounds a bit like Irish drinking songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
