Excellent, I always enjoy the new additions. Worst case scenario, you've at least reminded me of an LP I've neglected recently. That's why this thread's becoming one of my favourite things online.

how clichéd.

i$e and co, I assuming you guys have heard Little Roy's 'Battle For Seattle' album?
It bucks the hardcore/screamo discussion you guys are having but it's my AOTY, and there aren't enough people crowing about it on here for my liking.

This should change.

I've heard a few tracks and it's fun. I could never give a cover album AOTY though. Just a personal thing.

Reminds me of Dub Side of the Moon.

For me, it's had the replayability factor that I haven't got from any other record this year. That's why it's top, the tracks which were originally quite bleak have been injected with such energy and vibrant colour, and sound fantastic.

The Decemberist's The King Is Dead album rolls in at Number 2.

Didn't know Snooki from Jersey Shore had a msuic career now.

Anyone a fan of The Sheepdogs? Just found out about them recently and I love their old school rock and roll style.

I've heard good things about them Bubz. I'm going to get their album.

**j.konig** · 11-27-2011, 08:13 PM

just listened to the tigers on trains record you recommended and it's really good. is their other stuff any good?

**i$e** · 11-27-2011, 09:00 PM

Love that album.

Grandfather is easily their best and it's really their proper debut release. They have a couple others that they put up for free on their website and theres def some really good tracks in there. Glad someone else enjoyed it though.

Listening to Zen Arcade by Husker Du for the first time in a few months right now. Still nearly a flawless album. This and Double Nickels On The Dime were real creativity highlights in the 80s American indie/alternative scene.
