Back in college our crew was pretty much into punk/indie/sk8ing/drinking etc... That was in Fargo. Now, we had another crew that was based in St. Cloud, MN. These guys were into more of the drug/electronic/hippie type of shit. Or at least that was the impression I got. Whenever we would go there they would be playing <a href="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=11310518">Daft Punk</a> records and whenever they came up to Fargo we would be playing <a href="http://www.myspace.com/rocketfromthecrypt1">Rocket From the Crypt</a> records. SO, St. Cloud was my intro to dance music and it has carried over to the present. There is this recod lable out of Paris called <a href="http://www.myspace.com/edbangerrecords ">ED BANGER</a>. It is what <a href=" http://www.myspace.com/etjusticepourtous ">Justice</a> is on. Almost all of the DJs on it are sooo good. So here is your chance to here some of them. Go to <a href="http://nodatta.blogspot.com/">NODATTA</a> 's blog and get some for free or try <a href="http://music.shareminer.com/">Shareminer</a>. It's good music for when you are doin' shit around the house.<br /><br /><a href=" http://www.myspace.com/djmehdi ">DJ MEHDI</a><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/mc7ND4Qrd3I&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/mc7ND4Qrd3I&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://www.myspace.com/busyp ">Busy P</a><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/F37WgR7bhwM&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/F37WgR7bhwM&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://www.myspace.com/0sebastian0 ">Sebastian</a><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wiQgcLHXayg&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wiQgcLHXayg&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://www.myspace.com/uffie ">Uffie</a> (just a still picture and a great song, CHEEEZEE but great!)(She is the girl that sings "The Party" on the Justice album)<br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5PYzwdbbgF8&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5PYzwdbbgF8&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />UFFIE, YOW ZA!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf-_VodptXAxR_ykhQsW5buzZWADRp-HQMguli4B7nTL98PcQLA9S004OJpjr67ROpnlPyLL3Ae66hfWkEZW6snHe0V8TgsqWw7wBzMJMl5k_4uf_vmEJto8mvNpxR5TIyGrJxcGOWB-s7/s1600-h/ufir.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf-_VodptXAxR_ykhQsW5buzZWADRp-HQMguli4B7nTL98PcQLA9S004OJpjr67ROpnlPyLL3Ae66hfWkEZW6snHe0V8TgsqWw7wBzMJMl5k_4uf_vmEJto8mvNpxR5TIyGrJxcGOWB-s7/s200/ufir.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5155190955129718386" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf-_VodptXAxR_ykhQsW5buzZWADRp-HQMguli4B7nTL98PcQLA9S004OJpjr67ROpnlPyLL3Ae66hfWkEZW6snHe0V8TgsqWw7wBzMJMl5k_4uf_vmEJto8mvNpxR5TIyGrJxcGOWB-s7/s1600-h/ufir.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf-_VodptXAxR_ykhQsW5buzZWADRp-HQMguli4B7nTL98PcQLA9S004OJpjr67ROpnlPyLL3Ae66hfWkEZW6snHe0V8TgsqWw7wBzMJMl5k_4uf_vmEJto8mvNpxR5TIyGrJxcGOWB-s7/s200/ufir.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5155190955129718386" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href=" http://www.myspace.com/mrflashsmuggler ">Mr. Flash </a>(still pic and song)<br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/d99YTLYa-Ks&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/d99YTLYa-Ks&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://www.myspace.com/oizo3000">Mr. Oizo</a><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Kv6Ewqx3PMs&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Kv6Ewqx3PMs&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />Oh, and Justice, but hey, I have them in about 5 other posts so not this time.<br />DANCE!!!!!!OR NOT!!!!!!Clayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14503865569937480262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8126000941208699750.post-74890396996961333992008-01-12T13:03:00.000-08:002008-01-12T13:27:31.189-08:00F-M The Wisconsin Dells!!SO, here is another live video of my old band <a href="http://www.myspace.com/thewisconsindells">The Wisconsin Dells</a>. We played in Fargo,ND in the late 90's and 2000. Most of you know who we were because you are my friends but those of you from 31 different countries that watch cLAy TV!! we were good, damn good. See yourself. No..no..no we were just ok and having a f'n blast doin it. More than a band it was a community and lifestyle. It was great. Now for those of you who don't care about Fargo-Moorhead stuff then just go to an old post and watch your favorite video again and see ya tomorrow! OR, if don't know shit about Fargo besides that sweet movie called <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116282/">Fargo</a> watch the second video. YEAH.<br />Here we are playing the Cinegrill in Fargo.

Well, I liked Weezer on their first two albums and Jon Spencer, well, Orange was a good album, right? Anyway, they are still going strong but in different bands. Here is <a href="http://www.myspace.com/heavytrash ">Heavy Trash</a>, Jon Spencer's new band, and <a href=" http://www.myspace.com/riverscuomoband">Rivers Cuomo's</a> new solo thang. They both are not that good really but for nostalgia, try smoking a bong load, eating a cold piece of pizza and crank these two songs.

Just as local bands in <a href="http://www.areavoices.com/areascene/">Fargo-Moorhead</a> did, they got together, recorded a kick ass record, then broke-up. I still say to this day I have not heard the band I would like the best, because most bands don't ever really even make it around the track for me to see them. These guys are one of those bands. This is not really a new, cool, up and coming band. They are gone and have been for a while, their song came onto my iTunes shuffle and they resurfaced my brain. Sucks that they are done too, because I had tickets to see them at <a href="http://www.clubspaceland.com/">Spaceland</a>.<br /><br />R.I.P.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JnkwlvnRoLY&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JnkwlvnRoLY&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>Clayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14503865569937480262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8126000941208699750.post-53371253073992846222008-01-08T23:05:00.000-08:002008-01-09T12:25:38.232-08:00Two Videos and Bands to Watch in '08These guys are going to be/already are huge in '08. They are the next big thing. Buzz band. Hip shit. Just as The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand and Bloc Party did, <a href=" http://www.myspace.com/vampireweekend">Vampire Weekend</a> seem to have come out of nowhere and are the hot shit and will be for a minute. So jump on board before they get too big and you don't like them anymore. <br /><br /><object width="425" height="373"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_XC2mqcMMGQ&rel=1&border=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_XC2mqcMMGQ&rel=1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="373"></embed></object><br /><br />And this band has been around for a while but they have some steam behind them with their new album coming out soon. It's <a href="http://www.myspace.com/goldfrapp ">Goldfrapp</a>. I am not a big fan really but my girl likes them and this video is sweet. It's directed by the same guy who did the Bat For Lashes video with that girl on the bike. (see my top 15 videos of 2007 to see that one, it kicks!) This song will be on their new album, Seventh Tree. I actually like the song, it's just so damn cute and nice. Makes me feel fuzzy.<br /><br />Clay says, "They took it down. Guess it leaked and wasn't ready to be shown yet. I will put it up when it's ready.

They are all female fronted or totally female bands that are putting the "riot" back in "grrrl". Old bands like <a href=" http://www.myspace.com/bikiniriotkill">Bikini Kill</a>, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/redflipper2">Bratmobile</a>, or <a href="http://www.myspace.com/redflipper2">Huggy Bear</a> were these kind of bands. They were bad-ass ladies that liked to just rule you on stage. It's back and better than ever. Listen to them and tell yourself, "Self, these girls are awesome." Then after that take a shower.<br /><br />First off, straight outta LA baby it's: <a href="http://www.myspace.com/mikamiko "> Mika Miko</a><br /><br />They are so damn.....real. They don't f'around. They just do what they do and have a great time doin' it! They are getting big too, I tried to see them last night and when I got there it was sold-out!

It's full of young, hip, cool, weed smokin', 40 drinkin' kids. It reminded me of the old Perot House in Fargo. It's a place that has shows and kids just out of high school livin' on their own for the first time and lovin' it. It was nice to be in that environment again. True underground music comes from these places. I saw plenty of bands in basements that moved on to be pretty big acts. This is one of those bands, they oozed potential. They are called <a href="http://www.myspace.com/teenagecoolkids">Teenage Cool Kids</a> from Denton, TX. Good stuff. Here are some pics and some shitty live footage but good song! Two other bands played too. <a href="ttp://www.myspace.com/kojikondom ">Koji Kondo</a> from TX and <a href=" http://www.myspace.com/weekendwarriorla ">Weekend Warrior</a> from LA. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_TOtAgnhVaxdthnX4qv9PV2oc2q0KKKXHBulPWHCmSMBbROnXyMXUXPFb6fpkT61944QQGh_VRQchIUcgUYE5lNd9eR6ujcQB1RaEkA_Pi-CXgEL872_SXKl-HXpLshJYfBK-f9fRnSqC/s1600-h/DSC01542.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_TOtAgnhVaxdthnX4qv9PV2oc2q0KKKXHBulPWHCmSMBbROnXyMXUXPFb6fpkT61944QQGh_VRQchIUcgUYE5lNd9eR6ujcQB1RaEkA_Pi-CXgEL872_SXKl-HXpLshJYfBK-f9fRnSqC/s320/DSC01542.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152509461017937490" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2fpzjeN3uKG1OXL9TP62n8fYug_LyJvH4KqrmqpVn8pguqKcuykqWtOpoxI-C8znCgHJDSFIVT2S51xi3G-ctSbUVLe_kjQTtNqkdgFYqCmZI3uEV8Vq9iE1x8v-dCzgBRQO1e0HMZy1G/s1600-h/DSC01538.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2fpzjeN3uKG1OXL9TP62n8fYug_LyJvH4KqrmqpVn8pguqKcuykqWtOpoxI-C8znCgHJDSFIVT2S51xi3G-ctSbUVLe_kjQTtNqkdgFYqCmZI3uEV8Vq9iE1x8v-dCzgBRQO1e0HMZy1G/s320/DSC01538.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152509963529111138" /></a><br /><br /><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="225" data="http://www.vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=438685&server=www.vimeo.com&fullscreen=1&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color="> <param name="quality" value="best" /> <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /> <param name="scale" value="showAll" /> <param name="movie" value="http://www.vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=438685&server=www.vimeo.com&fullscreen=1&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=" /></object><br /><a href="http://www.vimeo.com/438685/l:embed_438685">Teenage Cool Kids - Tryna Decide</a> from <a href="http://www.vimeo.com/jessespurlin/l:embed_438685">Jesse Spurlin</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com/l:embed_438685">Vimeo</a>.Clayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14503865569937480262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8126000941208699750.post-66247336389448313222008-01-05T15:09:00.000-08:002008-01-05T15:32:37.527-08:00The Weakerthans: One New-One OldSO, these guys are from Winnipeg. I went to college in Fargo, ND which is a couple hour drive away from that great Canadian city. I went there with some friends one night to drink Labatts and break bottles in the street while singing our national anthem. Didn't do too much else. I have been a big fan of two bands from there that share the same guy. The old bass player from Propagandhi is the singer for The Weakerthans. Now, either you could give a shit about these bands or you COULD and those are your only two options. I particularly like both and I came across some footage of them for my next installment of "One New-One Old". Actually, there will be one new, one kinda new, one kinda less new and then one old ( real old, Propagandhi live from 1994). The reason being is that I haven't seen these until yesterday and thought I would share all there goodness. The Weakerthans don't break any new ground in music today or anything, they are just a solid rock/alt band. Just let them win you over and you will be happy you did. SO, stop trying to be sooo damn cool and DO IT!!<br /><br />One New: The Weakerthans - Civil Twilight<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/H9Ev1KzZby0&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/H9Ev1KzZby0&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br /><br />One Kinda New: The Weakerthans - The Reasons<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/aW1d_xZNgO4&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/aW1d_xZNgO4&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />One Kinda Less New: The Weakerthans - Our Retired Explorer<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0rvKD2PDeik&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0rvKD2PDeik&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />One Old: Propagandhi - Nation-States<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bd2yw4DCtbA&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bd2yw4DCtbA&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>Clayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14503865569937480262noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8126000941208699750.post-22871795826965695512008-01-05T00:16:00.000-08:002008-01-05T09:57:45.592-08:00cLAy TV!!

Today I am a vegetable, I got out of bed twice to do essential things but I have been bed ridden all day. Last night was great though! We saw Peaches and Justice play. Justice was killing it until they were forced to stop due to too many people on the stage. The whole crowd was really getting into, like Euro style and shit. The event was poorly put together but was still fun, at one point my lil' lady and I worked our way on stage and got next to peaches. (we actually were next to her the day before too because we saw her at the Murakami show at the MOCA) Basically anyone could go anywhere, funny.<br />So here are some pics from last night and one from today,<br />Happy New Year from cLAy TV!!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE_nTobAnVBXSgWxaOh6In54ddUR9mwU8soq4RMIMFVtwbtULVU4zmN7UXNbM6IercwfMg0drIoBguFuCO0qI3lIsobAdniUqdqDXyHWacwhAjZpf-tuZMLg1X3x_t1IU1jbKU8c39HFEV/s1600-h/DSC01485.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE_nTobAnVBXSgWxaOh6In54ddUR9mwU8soq4RMIMFVtwbtULVU4zmN7UXNbM6IercwfMg0drIoBguFuCO0qI3lIsobAdniUqdqDXyHWacwhAjZpf-tuZMLg1X3x_t1IU1jbKU8c39HFEV/s320/DSC01485.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5150735085473908082" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZor1_RKfRCuDovLWkUI-C0NmCSDbnnIatN7Js7cdVHN4lncSSPArtXFnXs4ZhDtHm23k2BotZEZ0tULNi3plgruTbe-9dBdFIMqBgmZ8iwBlIEVvgVsTE5CTnqn9yWEUSxxkjB0scRkZL/s1600-h/DSC01476.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZor1_RKfRCuDovLWkUI-C0NmCSDbnnIatN7Js7cdVHN4lncSSPArtXFnXs4ZhDtHm23k2BotZEZ0tULNi3plgruTbe-9dBdFIMqBgmZ8iwBlIEVvgVsTE5CTnqn9yWEUSxxkjB0scRkZL/s320/DSC01476.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5150735368941749634" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4leJpU63m6SqUtxZMOxNpaGlfDBV2PIdFuAlho2br4d1GxrTIinLMPLcpJn5w68Fo1omXtQaLP1OoOHr-IOGH3a3hijPh5MM4zEeWfkW-t-Sq3EHJlMlfxZCxVPRGGKm1tsPEju3j42Kf/s1600-h/DSC01483.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4leJpU63m6SqUtxZMOxNpaGlfDBV2PIdFuAlho2br4d1GxrTIinLMPLcpJn5w68Fo1omXtQaLP1OoOHr-IOGH3a3hijPh5MM4zEeWfkW-t-Sq3EHJlMlfxZCxVPRGGKm1tsPEju3j42Kf/s320/DSC01483.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5150735712539133330" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRQonJs7DWmmJKO5zpwkU3NPIlaVQTIiV71Pi2aZCpURehyphenhyphenvujVBTdm7Cgrj7fWzQEsPcqZMr9VIihcdJzauQxpRx7ymZub9OM3Edx3X0FfmHQmglK2jHLnM-TOY9-APInf_XSEt1t2Rq7/s1600-h/DSC01498.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRQonJs7DWmmJKO5zpwkU3NPIlaVQTIiV71Pi2aZCpURehyphenhyphenvujVBTdm7Cgrj7fWzQEsPcqZMr9VIihcdJzauQxpRx7ymZub9OM3Edx3X0FfmHQmglK2jHLnM-TOY9-APInf_XSEt1t2Rq7/s320/DSC01498.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5150735996006974882" /></a><br /><br />Traditional new years food in Japan called, Osechi.

I have posted my favorite albums for you to listen to and now it's time for my video round-up for 2007. I chose 15 for you to watch. Why 15? Not sure? There are also honorable mentions that I will link you to if you want to see those as well. <br /> I remember watching Mtv's top 100 end of the year countdown back in the day and watching it the whole way through. I would guess what the top 10 would be. I was usually right. SO now it's my chance to make a video list! <br /> Before we get started, this was the number one video on Mtv exactly 20 years ago. This is dedicated to all you Mtv generation kids who lived in small towns and Mtv was your only outlet to cool stuff!<br />Sledgehammer - Peter Gabriel ("Sledgehammer" is the most played music video in the history of Mtv)<br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hqyc37aOqT0&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hqyc37aOqT0&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />15.

Here is a list of my top 20 and then a bunch of honorable mentions. It's based on the amount I actually listened to each of them. It has nothing to do with the "the best" albums of the year according to critics and shit. I hate it when they say "the best" albums of the year because "best" is subjective, it's your opinion. My top 20 and another's SHOULD be different. I have seen so many lists that have all the same shit.....well, I guess I have some of those too, but mine is a bit more varied. So here they are, MY favorite albums this year, and if you don't agree, good for you! (ps I haven't heard every damn album out there so quite possibly I am missing an album that I would have loved but haven't heard yet:)<br /><br /><br />20. Holy Fuck -LP (Toronto, big, loud, instrumental, groove, heavy chug, strangely melodic)<br /><br />19. Sunset Rubdown- Random Spirit Lover (Montreal, Wolf Parade side project, first half of album rules)<br /><br />18. Riverboat Gamblers- To the Confusion of our Enemies (Denton/Austin Texas, punk, fun times, sing-a-long, yay)<br /><br />17. No Age- Weirdo Rippers (L.A., bringing back the spirit of 80's dirty inventive punk rock weirdness)<br /><br />16. Lifetime- Lifetime (Jersey, fast punk melodies, I've had a place in my heart for these guys for a long time)<br /><br />15. Arcade Fire- Neon Bible (Montreal, everyone likes this, sweeeet live, turn it up or listen on headphones to 'get it')<br /><br />14. Spoon- Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga (Austin, soul, Indie, everyone likes this one too, just plain good, can't believe I opened for these guys way back)<br /><br />13. Modest Mouse- We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank (Seattle, these guys have been a fav of mine for a long time, album overlooked this year I think, always good)<br /><br />12. Yeasayer- All Hour Cymbals (Brooklyn, indie rock world music, fresh sounding, blazing a new genre) <br /><br />11. Health- Health (L.A., beat heavy, noise, turn it up and just go nuts)<br /><br />10. The Weakerthans- Reunion Tour (Winnipeg, regular old indie rock, grows on you, great lyrics, old fan of these guys)<br /><br />9. Deerhoof- Friend Opportunity (San Francisco, indie/noise rock, pop sensibilities, dissonance, disjointed, condensed, asymmetrical and otherwise unconventional song structures, raw and at times strident sound surfaces)<br /><br />8. M.I.A.- Kala (London of Tamil/Jaffna origin, hip-hop, electro, grime, dancehall, world music, everyone likes this one, unique, fun)<br /><br />7. ENVY- Abyssal (Tokyo, hardcore/screamo, ambient, huge builds, walls of sound, they kill, love this EP, whoa!)<br /><br />6. Melt Banana- Bambi’s Dilemma (Tokyo, noise, punk, insane freak out stuff, melodies galore, nuts, crank it, yesssss!!!) <br /><br />5. Les Savy Fav- Let’s Stay Friends (NYC, idiosyncratic indie rock, been a fan for a long time, art rock, just don't give a 'f' and play, great live!)<br /><br />4. Justice- Cross (Paris, fat, dirty beats, electro-house, like it's being played through an AM radio, DANCE!!)<br /><br />3. Battles- Mirrored (NYC, beats, drums, mostly instrumental, keep going back to this one, mathy greatness, whoooo!) <br /><br />2. LCD Soundsystem- Sound of Silver (NYC, dance/punk, never the same song twice, witty lyrics, old sound guy for six finger satellite which I played with in an old band of mine, he was just a sound guy then, but now?! WHOA!!! Epic)<br /><br />1. Tegan and Sara- The Con (Calgary, pop/melodic, probably a surprise for most of you, awesome catchy songs, sing-a-long the whole album, lesbian indie greatness, listened to this one the most of all, my girl loves it too and that always helps!)<br /><br />Honorable Mentions: Marnie Stern- In Advance of the Broken Arm, The Animal Collective- Strawberry Jam, Converge- No Heroes, Big Business- Here Come the Waterworks, Menomena- Friend and Foe, Kanye West- Graduation, Every Time I Die- The Big Dirty, Jay Z- American Gangster, Okkervil River- The Stage Names, Radiohead- In Rainbows, The Twilight Sad- Fourteen Autums and Fifteen Winters, Modeselektor- Happy Birthday, Burial- Untrue, Eluvium- Copia, Bowerbirds- Hyms For a Dark Horse, Bjork- Volta, Blonde Redhead- 23, Deerhunter- Cryptograms, Yeah Yeah Yeahs- Is/Is EP, Explosions in the Sky- All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone, Bloc Party- A Weekend in the City, Klaxons- Myths of the Near Future, sunnO))) & Boris- Altar, Tarentel- Ghetto Beats on the Surface of the Sun Disc 2, Crystal Castles- Demos, DJ Mehdi- Lucky Girl, Fuck Buttons- Sweet Love for Planet Earth EPClayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14503865569937480262noreply@blogger.com1
