at lollapaloza, i was trying to get my picture taken with john noris cus he was a quasi famous person when i was in middle/highschool. he ended up wanting to talk.... about psychedelic horseshit. he said he has seen them like four or five times and thinks they are genius. it was weird. he also told me that he owned the same shirt i was wearing and complemented it. it was weird. he was following kanye west around i think. or perhaps he was ignoring kanye. his hair was also dyed blonde which i also thought was strange cus he is like fifty. anyway. he was super genuine and nice and all that. |

man, i dunno, i was just in pricilla's a few minutes ago, and heard whatever's being passed off as the radio-single from that record for the first time, and if it WASN'T the worst rock song i heard all year, it definitely the worst song from a cat i used to enjoy . . . god, it was insufferably bad, and it went on forever. (it kinda broke my heart a little, but only a little, cuz i wasn't exactly expecting to love it) |

I second Strummy on the Of Montreal. My favorites: Lindsey Buckingham - Gift of Screws Robert Forster - The Evangelist (my favorite of the year) Times New Viking - Rip It Off Neil Halstead - Oh Mighty Engine Kyle Sowashes - Yeah Buddy Two Cow Garage - Speaking in Cursive Miranda Sound - Miranda Sound Ghost Shirt - Demo Take No Damage - The Shambles EP Deerhunter - Microcastle Department of Eagles - In Ear Park Los Campesinos - Hold on Youngster Conor Oberst - Conor Oberst Lil Wayne - The Carter III Raveonettes- Lust Lust Lust Blitzen Trapper - Furr Cut Copy - In Ghost Colours Walkmen - You & Me Wolf Parade - At Mount Zoomer Albums I listened to 3-4 times before deciding I really did not like them Sam I Am (i.e. DISAPPOINTMENTS GALORE IN 08): Kanye West, Ron Sexsmith, TV on the Radio, Fleet Foxes, Girl Talk, My Morning Jacket, Randy Newman, She & Him Worst album Kanye West - 808 and Heartbreak Best single - American Boy by Kanye West and Estelle Columbus music ruled in 08: I finally connected with Times New Viking, Our Cat Phillip totally rules, Take No Damage is lord of the ice, Ghost Shirt kills, Sowashes have never been better, Lost Revival excited me, Two Cow is conquering the globe. So much good stuff going on here, I've never had so many Columbus albums on my year end favorites in like a I actually listened to this as much as the records by national bands kind of way and not a I listened to this cause these are nice guys I played with at Skully's last week kind of way. |

My top 5 list for 2008 1. My Entire Record Collection Honestly, I don't think I heard more than ten records that were even released this year. I spent most of the year digitizing my current collection, along with reaquirring a couple hundred albums I had lost over the past 5 to 8 years. I now have about 100gbs worth of music dating back to 1934 all the up to last week. Now my turntable, 4-track, computer, and stereo have been effectively mereged into one symbotic system. Each part is able to send and receive music from one piece to any other without much or any thought/effort on my part. (except obviously, the turntable only sends music) I've started using a a program called Amarok to play all my music. It's a great player, I can load all 16,997 and growing songs in my collection all at once, and it'll play tracks at random for the six weeks and one day that would take. It also reports my playlist directly to my lastfm account, which makes lastfm alot more useful to me than it was before. (It even has a really nice profile for Marvin The Robot, which I did not create) It somehow knows to play hip hop in the morning and Elvis Costello at night, very brilliant!!! 2. The Invisible Hand - self titled cassette This Ohio/West Virgina two piece has all the hooks of Alien Lanes, mixxed with all the harmonic sweetness/oddity of the best Elephant 6 releases. Just lo-fi enough to make my heart sing, but crystal clear and delightful all the way. 3. Nas - The N Word album, mixtape, or any of the 800 versions of it out there Here's the portrait of a web 2.0 album. This record had half a dozen fan remixes before it even hit the street. Throw on top of that the deliberately early releases and decoy releases meant to subvert and throw off bootleggers. It's a phenomena that's much bigger than a simple Nas release. Between it's unspeakable tittle, and way the interenet immediately took ownership of this recording. It's been incredibly fun to watch. 4. Silver Jews - Look Out Moutain, Look Out Sea I owned this record for two days before I could play and sing along with every song. I think I listened to nothing else that whole week. 5. Stark Folk - Ryan Shaffer and Brady Burkett have been one of my favorite songwritting duos for just over a decade now. This newest incarnation of their musical friendship has been a real treat. The name of the band says everything about the sound except how good it all is. |

Microcastles by Deerhunter = best album of 2008. Less scruff and spectacles and better songwriting. Kings of Leon's Only by Night is in the top five. Anyone who says Aha or Youth are better is cleary just missing the obvious bulge in caleb's pants back then or the tried and true beards that half of them "sported." With Buzzing etc. by Sigur Ros is the clear number 2. |
