(Another) Top 10

2007 was an ok year, but it's over tomorrow and that's ok. I saw some good shows, heard some good tunes, and lived through the second snowiest December in Madison's history (unless we get 2.2 inches of snow by midnight, which is unlikely).

As a blogger, albeit a severely lazy one, it is my obligation, like Danny's, to compile an end-of-the-year-best-of-something list just like everyone else, and because I am a.) lazy (as previously stated) and b.) boring, it's just going to be albums. Top 10 motherfucking albums of 2007:

1. Black Lips - Good Bad Not Evil
2. A Place to Bury Strangers - S/T
3. Walker Kong - Deliver Us from People
4. Spoon - Ga (x5)
5. Menomena - Friend and Foe
6. Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings - 100 Days, 100 Nights
7. Radiohead - In Rainbows
8. Glass Candy - B/E/A/T/B/O/X
9. Caribou - Andorra
10. Vampire Weekend - Blue CD-R

Honorable Mention:
Of Montreal - Hissing Fauna, Are you the Destroyer
Arcade Fire - Neon Bible
Kanye West - Graduation
The Shins - Wincing the Night Away
No Age - S/T
Dean & Britta - The Back Numbers

And there you have it. In other news, how fucking annoying are those stupid shoes-that-turn-into-skates-that-every-fucking-idiot-kid-has? I swear, the next time I'm in Target to buy paper towels or a toothbrush and I almost fall over because some terrible parent allowed their delinquent-in-training to even own a pair of those monstrosities, much less wear them to a crowded public retail outlet, I'm going to punch someone in the face. The same goes for airports.

Garz- which of yours or Danny's top 10 do you think I'd enjoy the most. I'm looking for some new tunes always (ps I already have gagagagagagagagaga)


pps, for clarification, I'm not the "marcus" that J refers to.
