Words With Vigitude: Top Albums of 2011?

Its now ~~February~~ March (Christ, already?) so maybe its time to make a best albums of 2011 list, but you know I really haven't listened to much new music. I'm usually a few years behind on my music choices. I have been reading through a great many lists in hopes to broaden my playlists. I have found some gems and I have found some that ruined my ear drums. A lot of the lists included Washed Out and Yuck. I gave these albums a chance, but they did nothing for me. On the other hand, Kurt Vile and Charles Bradley both put out enjoyable albums.

A lot of top 2011 lists included the same albums, Bon Iver, Fleet Foxes, tUnE-yArDs, but one album that was missing from a grand majority of the lists is TV on the Radio's new album. I thought the album was phenomenal. So far I have only seen it on maybe 3 lists. Along with the album release, they also came out with a full-length video.

If you have a free hour, check out the video.

Now onto my top list of 2004

The Streets - A Grand Don't Come for Free

Songs like Such a Twat, Not Addicted, Dry Your Eyes. This disc is a winner.

Carbon Leaf - Indian Summer

Solid album all the way through

Jens Lenkman - When I Said I Wanted to Be Your Dog

Psychogirl.

Guy Davis - Legacy

Starts with a good song and ends with a good song.

Eminem - Encore

Not his best album, but there a few good gems on this one. Mosh and Ass like that are quality tracks.

Ben Kweller - On My Way

Strong album. Some slow songs and songs that pick up steam.

Green Day - American Idiot

I listened to this album a lot.

Incubus - A Crow Left of the Murder

Great album from Incubus. Their albums never let me down, except for Light Grenades. Whenever I hear an Incubus song on my Zune that I don't like, its always from Light Grenades.

Killers - Hot Fuss
