Possibly. Not sure.

Interpol, no. I have a hard time including newer artists with established favorites for some reason.

Yeah, this cd was tight. Dwele and I actually went to the same highschool for a period. His real name is Andwele Gardner and he has a new project comming out this year. I have a few stories about him before he blew up if youre interested.
I also have a couple of highschool yearbook pictures of him. lol

Arcade Fire- Funeral
Björk- Vespertine
Iron & Wine- Woman King
Franz Ferdinand- Franz Ferdinand
Roisin Murphy- Sequins EP's
The White Stripes- Elephant
Queens of the Stone Age- Songs for the Deaf
My Morning Jacket- The Tennessee Fire
Hedwig And The Angry Inch- Hedwig and The Angry Inch Soundtrack
The Beastie Boys- To The 5 Boroughs

Okay, this list was compiled from my WMP. I am BAD in making lists. I always forget important artists, but I just strolled through my WMP after my inspiration died down and noted the albums I could not do without.

Every entry here represents a certain moment in my life, a certain mood. More importantly, as music has become my fave addiction again; these are the albums I would NOT delete of my hard-drive to make space for new music.

You might note a few new entries here, esp Roisin Murphy, but you do not have to own an album long sumtimes to recognise it's excellence. I have been playing Roisin almost non-stop (in between my music swapping schemes with Isten, when I listen to what I send; yesterday my pathetic collection of Eurythmics extended versions).
I am also still surprised at the impact Iron & Wine's Woman King EP made on me... it's basically singer/songwriter Sam Beam playing folk, but this latest EP is a step beyond his own genre, which I like. I want to urge you all to check this Woman King EP out, esp if you love early 70's Joni Mitchell.

I took off my initial entry of Miles Davis' Complete Jack Johnson Sessions, because of the fact it's a re-issue and not really a release of this century.
I also swapped The Strokes' Is This It? for Roisin Murphy. I have never gotten into the second Strokes so prominently on Moonbeam's list and realised I have much more faith in me playing Roisin in five years than I'll be playing The Strokes.

I don't dig this album quite like the stellar debut but I'm still digesting it.

Q-tip - Kamaal The Abstract (not officially released)


How do I get a hold of this?!?

Donnie - The Colored Section


I was just listening to this last night. I was a little bored with it the first time I listened but I think I will give it another chance.

Dwele - Rize (not officially released)


He's got a lot of potential and I heard good things about this album.

Nice choices all.

I'd be happy to make it not pathetic. smile

It was largely a case of right album, right time for me with Room on Fire. Stylistically, it suits me better than the first album, focusing some of its energy on new wave (swoon).

You're one of the very few I've seen that likes this better than Heathen.

I still want to check out the Sufjan cd too.
