My Top 10 of 2007

Since everyone else is doing it, I figured I might as well add my 2 cents in the form of a top 10 list. I’ve actually done this in previous years but didn’t last year for some reason. I think I actually did write a top 10 list, but never actually published it.

I felt like it was a pretty good year for music. One thing I did notice this year is British music was fantastic. There were a few releases that basically got ignored here, but were critically acclaimed in Britain. And yes, before anyone says anything, there a few very predictable spots on my list.

Albums I listened to a lot but didn’t quite make the list:

  • Anberlin - Cities
  • Athlete - Beyond the Neighbourhood
  • Battles - Mirrored
  • Bloc Party - A Weekend In The City
  • Eisley - Combinations
  • Explosions in the Sky - All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone

10. Matthew Good - Hospital Music
9. The Classic Crime - Seattle Sessions
8. Band of Horses - Cease to Begin
7. Editors - An End has a Start
6. Maximo Park - Our Earthly Pleasures
5. Tyler Ramsey - A Long Dream About Swimming Across The Sea
4. Cloud Cult - The Meaning of 8
3. Stars of Track and Field - Centuries Before Love and War
2. The National - Boxer
1. Wilco - Sky Blue Sky
