[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Not sure what qualifies as rock anymore but Beck's Guero has to be on the short list. [/ QUOTE ] Obviously. I just wanted to keep "rap" out of this. I want this to be a total indie hipster lovefest. [/ QUOTE ] what about crossover rap albums like "Late Registration"? [/ QUOTE ] Kanye rules. Sure. |

The Go! Team - Thunder, Lightning, Strike should also be considered.
Edit: As should Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have It So Much Better. |

Re: Nominations for Best \"Rock\" Album of 2005
Illinois was excellent. Also loved Blueberry Boat, though I can see why some people hate the Fiery Furnaces. Demon Days and the new Franz Ferdinand were great too.
Very disappointed by Repulsion Box, the first full-length from Sons & Daughters. Their EP was excellent, but the new album basically shows that they only have one song archetype. It's a good song, but I don't need 18 versions of it. |

I liked this year's offerings from High on Fire and Lightning Bolt.
