Top Ten for Sarah

1. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - It's Blitz (2009)
2. Cat Power - The Greatest (2006)
3. Girls - Album (2009)
4. Joanna Newsom - Have One On Me (2010)
5. Johnny Flynn - A Larum (2008)
6. Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga (2007)
7. Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!! (2008)
8. Hercules and Love Affair - Hercules and Love Affair (2008)
9. Laura Veirs - July Flame (2010)
10. Panda Bear - Person Pitch (2007)

I would have loved to include The New Pornographers, TV on the Radio, MIA, Neko Case, and Bonnie "Prince" Billy here, but I'm following Andrew's suggestion, so I am leaving MDM 2010 picks behind. Let the games begin.

  1. I see you had to be different, Sarah. Post the list yourself--women's rights and all that. Incidentally, this is a great list with two exceptions: Laura Vier who is a girl, and Girls who are boys. Also, same thing I said to Joe: no Bitte Ocra? I was counting on you.

  2. You said it was cooler not to post stuff from our MDM 2010 list, so I was just trying to be cool. Otherwise I would have gone for Bitte Orca.

  3. Hm, I kinda forgot about the not reposting part. Which is good because I only had 11 albums total.

  4. I thought it was not cool to include albums that made it into the final 128...

  5. I guess that would make more sense, Andy W. Oh well: What's done is done.

  8. I may have to check out that Laura Viers album. I saw her open for Sufjan once, and she was great. Her song 'Galaxies' is actually the most played song on my iPod.

  10. Jeff: You should definitely check out that Laura Veirs album. It is the only album I have downloaded of hers, but I have listened to it lots and there are few if any dud tracks.

    Welcome to the death match, Brooke. We need more women around these parts, right Andrew?
