The final year end tradition to continue this year is my round up of my favorite albums from 2010.
You’ll note that this list is someone different from the favorite tracks, as in some cases, my favorite albums worked best as a cohesive whole, not as an individual track, and some albums were eh, but with amazing songs.
Much like with the movies list, this isn’t ranked, just a listing of favorites, with the strong urge to you to check them out.
Here goes.
The Arcade Fire – The Suburbs
The Brother Kite – Isolation
Daft Punk – Tron Legacy (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
Gorillaz – Plastic Beach
Los Campesinos! – Romance Is Boring
The Octopus Project – Hexadecagon
Ted Leo & The Pharmacists – The Brutalist Bricks
And, in a special recommendation, as I’m very sure any reader of this blog would enjoy it, hands down, my favorite comedy album of the year.
Kyle Kinane – Death Of The Party
