after taking some time to listen to about 20-30 records over the past 2/3 days, i decided that there was still a bunch of great stuff that i didnt mention in my top 14.5 of the year. so, i came up with another 11 records that i think are more than deserving of more attention. i could have actually come up with another ten but felt that a solid 25.5 records was good enough. although, i may get bored an post the other ten records, but i doubt it. one thing that continues to sadden me is that lack of wilco on my lists seemingly the past 5 years… oh well. maybe next year or the year after?
boston spaceships – let it beard off let it beard
grayson capps – highway 42 off the lost cause minstrels
matthew carefully – walks with purpose w/ katie hammon off the brunswick soundtrack
one hundred dollars – powdered confessions off songs of man
imperial rooster – the vintage off decent people
jeremy benson (roadside graves) – too much love and not enough danger off darksongs 2
dan mangan – oh fortune off oh fortune
vulture whale – point of no return off first time caller
old calf – bonnie cuckoo off borrow a horse
smug brothers – interior magnets off fortune rumors
five eight – your god is dead to me now off your god is dead to me now
[...] – The Captain’s lists… (via Captains Dead) [...]
Thanks for giving Five-Eight a nod…my favorite local band!
