XBXRX - Sixth in Sixes
Lightning Bolt - Hypermagic Mountain
Annabel Lee Murders - Violence is the New Sex
Some Girls - The DNA Will Have Its Say
Ex-Models - Chrome Panthers
Locust - Safety Second, Body Last
Phone Tap Noir - Riprhymers, Moonshiners, and Most Unholy Synthisizers
Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower - Love in the Fascist Brothel
Pitch Black - This is the Modern Sound
Kill the Lights - Vada Mori
all in all it's been a slow year, and some of those albums normally would never have hit a top ten list, but the top three or five are truly excellent.

Blrrrrgh, I can't even muster up 10 for this year yet. Here's what I've got so far:
The Evens - s/t
Cave In - Perfect Pitch Black
Bear Vs. Shark - Terrorhawk
Spoon - Gimme Fiction
Pelican - The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw.
In conclusion, I suck at listening to music. Wasn't Darker My Love supposed to come out with something new this year? Oh well, what the hell.

Awesome I can't wait for the Lightning Bolt album to arrive, I wish overseas post took less than 5 days (or more depending when they sent it out).

The only cd I can think of that came out this year that still gets rotation in my cd player is Big D and the Kids Table's new cd How it Goes. I don't know many bands that aren't well known because, as BREAK put it, I suck. Or as I like to put it, I don't take much part in the local scene and no one in my general area listens to music that isn't mainstream. Basically, I don't know many bands that aren't well known and neither do people that I know. How did you find out about bands that aren't well known? Because I'm damn sure it's a lot better than the stuff I hear between the radio and my shittastic launchcast.

The only cds I have from 2005 are
System Of A Down - Mezmerize
The Mars Volta - Frances The Mute
Turbonegro - Party Animals
That's all. I might have a few more, but I can't remember right now. I'll be sure to check out those others though.

Listen to college radio. Read zines & ezines. Go on messageboards. Go to allmusic.com. There's a lot of ways.

#1. Cuff the Duke - S/T !!!!!!
I don't even have it yet but it's on it's way... and I know it's gonna be good from the songs I've listened to:
The New Pornographers - Twin Cinema
I think I'm still stuck on 2004 music... don't have time to listen to enough...

I'm kinda ashamed to admit my favorite album of '05. But here it is.......... Hawthorne Heights: The Silence In Black And White. I like every single song on the album. But it's not the most original, and thats what makes me ashamed to be supporting a band that sound awfully similar to other great emo bands such as Thursday and Taking Back Sunday.

Those are my favourite 10 albums of the year, may change if Tool release their new album this year. :D
My Lightning Bolt finally arrived on Thursday. I magiced it's way into a double 12" from the CD I ordered somewhow. But it's cool I didn't pay enough attention to notice that the vinyl is blue when I ordered (though why would I when I ordered a CD?)

I haven't enjoyed many albums this year, really. The only ones I enjoyed a lot were the new album by Dragonforce (the name escapes me now) and an album called The Happy Fun Time Sunshine Smile Brigade, by a local band called Xylophiliac.

It's Endy's top 10. His favorite 10 albums this year. We can't really suggest anything, unless he forgot something.
