Before you say, OMGGGGG, list fail, he doesn't have *Insert name*, maybe I haven't listened to it yet, or if I have (because I've listened to way more than just this), ask my opinion. Post your our album thoughts as well.

I've bought gobs of CDs this year and I can't even begin to think of what the best are at the moment. Alice In Chains definitely sticks, out, so does Them Crooked Vultures. I'll come back to this topic after I sleep and give some actual thought in to it.
 
Haven't listened to much new music this year, but I did catch Silversun's album and it was quite excellent. Very unique vocals and real smooth sound, Instrumentals are polished as well. I've heard almost all of Swoon.

I only know a little about "Oh,Sleeper", but they didn't seem bad. I have not gotten around to Brandy New and Alice's new stuff.

Good Calls. P.O.S. is definitely overlooked for the tunes he's cranking out.


Here are some artists that had some nice CD's that I want to throw in:

Slaughterhouse
Swollen Members
Wolfmother
Jet
Breathe Carolina
Cobra Starship
Black Eye Peas
Burn Halo
Asher Roth
One Block Radius

I figured I was the only person on this board who knew of Burn Halo. I like that band a lot more than the singers other band, 18 Visions.

So, as I thought about it, I really don't know what the best album of the year is or my top 10 even (at least not yet), so I'll just throw out some CDs that stick out to me.

Resident Hero - Look
Blue October - Approaching Normal
Alice In Chains - BGWTB
Paramore - Brand New Eyes
Them Crooked Vultures - s/t
Smile Empty Soul - Conciousness
Sick Puppies - Tripolar
Hurt - Goodbye To The Machine
Green Day - 21st Century Breakdown
Daughtry - Leave This Town
Breaking Benjamin - Dear Agony
Adelitas Way - s/t
Royal Bliss - Life In-Between

I'm sure there's something I'm forgetting, but I have no clue at this point. I've bought so much music this year that I can't even think of some of the stuff.
 
Say Anything - Say Anything

I'd ruin them both.
 
I'd wait for Miley, to be of age, then ruin her.
 
Age is only a number.

If there's grass on the field, play ball....
...if there isn't, go in the back and play in the mud!

Paramore - Brand New Eyes was really good, definitely agree on that

I'll add a few

Blu & Sene - A Day Late & A Dollar Short
Tanya Morgan - Brooklynati
Cunninglynguists - Strange Journey Vol. 1 & 2
Fashawn - Boy Meets World

and some country....
Jason Aldean - Wide Open
 
Katy Perry and Lady Gaga pretty much owned up the music industry in 2009. You could practically call 2009 the "Year of Gaga"

How many damn hits did she have?

That is an insult to every musician who isn't top 40. So no, this is not year of the bisexual

Who had more success?

Fuckin hedley has more success Converge, but does that make them better, fuck no. Top 40 is for little girls and ***s. I listen to artists that perfect their craft and don't sell out.

If you're implying I took the joke from you, no. I've heard it a lot before.

But, if you're implying I'm disagreeing with my previous statement, then uh...just...call me John Kerry!

Simma down. I don't even like her. I'm saying that bitch sold a shit ton of albums in 2009.
 
Hmmm, can't make a complete list right now but 2 that immediately come to mind that I've listened the shit out of is Julian Casablancas-11th Dimension, Jay-Z- Blueprint 3.
 
So, I have an album to add to my list, and the album that is quite possibly my favorite album of the year.

30 Seconds To Mars - This Is War

The album, in my book, is by far the bands best work. The album is brilliant, through a few listens, I don't think it has a bad song. The other thing to note is that the album doesn't really have a mainstream sounding song like The Kill, From Yesterday, or Attack like their last album did, and it might be a good thing. Overall, fantastic album, and could very well be my favorite album of the year.
 
Now, I just listened to Kings and Queens from said album above, I'm hoping the rest of the album isn't like this because it is almost attempting to be something it is not. It wants to be an epic, but falls right on it's face, big time. Rest of album will get a listen tomorrow.

Bitch, bumped my thread.

Has anyone brought up Tiesto's new album? Saosin had a pretty good album come out this year too.
 
Saosin was terrible too, bottom 10 album of the year, a massive step back for them. Haven't heard Tiesto cause I'm not a fan.
