Your favourite new cds for 2004 now that the year is drawing to a close (thank god), what were your favourite cds of this year?
mine were: 1. Mos Def - The New Danger 2. U2 - How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb 3. Prince - Musicology 4. .... gee i think that is it. wow. what a dull year. i heard a lot of old stuff that i loved like Marvin Gaye, Nina Simone, Bob Marley, Quincy Jones/Bill Cosby but that's it. | |

I think everyone overlooked Sonic Youth's "Nurse" album. Great album in my opinion, but I don't think they can maintain recognition with all of this teenie bopper albums coming out. [Edited 11/21/04 21:58pm] | |

Delgados - Universal Audio. This is probably my least favourite Delgados release to date, but that's only because I think their last two albums were honest-to-god masterpieces - The Great Eastern and Hate were like dream combinations of Belle and Sebastian, Flaming Lips, Abbey Road-era Beatles and E.L.O. They've scaled back their ambition on this record, but when it's on, this is a stunningly beautiful album. This is a criminally overlooked band. If there is any justice in the world, the Great Eastern will one day have the kind of reputation that Love's Forever Changes now enjoys. | |

Here's my list of fave CDs of 2004:
Frou Frou - Details Lamb - Best Kept Secrets - The Best Of Lamb 1996-2004 Elliott Smith - From A Basement On The Hill Kayne West - The College Dropout Bjork - Medulla Kool Keith - Diesel Truckers Kool Keith - Doctor Octagon Pt. 2 Teena Marie - La Dona Ween - Live In Chicago Lenny Kravitz - Baptism N.E.R.D. - Fly Or Die Janet Jackson - Damita Jo Van Hunt - Van Hunt John P - Hologram E.P.  
Brian Wilson - Smile George Michael - Patience Prince - Musicology Zap Mama - Ancestry In Progress I bought a few more than that, but they're not my favourites, like Green Day and the Streets latest album. Also, I haven't got the Nirvana box set yet and I am SURE that will end up being my fave release of 2004. . [Edited 11/21/04 22:46pm] | |

!!! - louden it up
scissor sisters nick cave & the bad seeds - abbatoir blues/lyre of orpheus favey reissues: talking heads - the name of this band is talking heads (finally!!!) pavement - crooked rain, crooked rain (this is what a reissue should look and sound like. everyone else should be taking notes.) bowie - aladdin sane (i'd say diamond dogs - the sound of the reissue was great and i liked the gatefold inner sleeve - but i thought overall the packaging was all kinds of shoddy and the bonus disc coulda been shown more love) | |
