Your top 5 albums of 2005

[mmbt0ne]

Honestly, I have no idea what cds came out in 2005.

Also, I count The Go! Team as 2004, since that's when it came out on import and when I got it. Obviously it would be #1 of whatever year it's considered.

3: Sufjan Stevens - Illinois

CMI sent me this cd less than a week ago, and I already love it. In two weeks time it may move up the list (or perhaps down), but I pretty much can't stop listening to it. Kinda a time investment, but well worth it, with some of the best songs at the end.

Illinois

and (a somewhat guilty pleasure) Wide awake its morning

Why would somebody make fun of you for liking such an amazing album?

1.John Frusciante - Curtains
2.Bright Eyes -I'm Wide Awake it's Morning
3.Better than Ezra - Before the Robots
4.Ben Folds - Songs For Silverman
5.Ryan Adams - Cold Roses

This is basically all I've bought from '05

Im wide awake its morning is definitely in my top 5....it also ranks in my favorite cds of all time soooooo...no reason to hate on it or be ashamed.

Im still looking foward to the new Coheed and Cambria release and am sorely disappointed that Brand New has pushed their cd back so far it probably wont make 2k5.

Beck's cd was kinda weak....Picaresque is good...Bloc party might squeeze into my top 5.

1. The Magic Numbers - The Magic Numbers
2. Spoon - Gimme Fiction

So far so good...in no particular order.

1. Bloc Party - Silent Alarm
2. Beck - Guero
3. National - Alligator
4. Bright Eyes - I'll Count Both CD's here
5. Personally--I really like the new Team Sleep album. But it's no masterpiece.
