Full of sweeping melodies and lush string arrangements, Copia is the perfect escapist album. Let it take you where it will. Frightened Rabbit The Midnight Organ FightKendrick Lamar good kid, m.A.A.d cityLed Zeppelin Led ZeppelinManchester Orchestra Mean Everything To NothingWith Mean Everything to Nothing, Manchester Orchestra cement themselves firmly in excellence. The album is nothing short of a masterpiece and Andy Hull is nothing short of a mastermind. O'Brother The Death of DayDespite its short 31 minute playtime, The Death of Day forms an incredibly poignant atmosphere. The depth of this indie/post-rock album is enormous, with new excellencies found on each enticing listen. Of all its triumphs though, it is the warmth of the hope the album provides that establishes it as a classic. Merrit's soaring and diverse vocals, the wavering guitar harmonies, and the driving bass all resonate some sort of utopian hope that is not found in hardly any albums. Essential stuff right here imo.Sigur Ros ( )Sigur Ros Takk...Questioner: Hey BigTuna, what's the most hopeful, encouraging, life-affirming, and epic album of all time?

She said that throughout the main body of his speech, she was always wondering what the point was or where the speaker was going. But, at the very end of the speech, the speaker ALWAYS said something that made the entire talk click instantly. That is EXACTLY what Axe to Fall does for me. While I know that the album is good in the middle of it, I'm waiting hopefully for something to make it click, for it all to make sense. And then I began to hear those oddly distorted guitar notes of Wretched World and I fall in love.Creedence Clearwater Revival Cosmo's FactoryDeath The Sound of PerseveranceRiffs riffs riffs riffs riffs, moar progressiveness, and unbelievably unbelievable.Death SymbolicRiffs riffs riffs riffs riffs riffs riffs and just the best death metal to ever grace my ears.Decapitated Winds of CreationDeerhunter Halcyon DigestAbsolutely.

As the reviews for this have noted, this is not an accident.

Because when all is bared, this is a fantastic, anthem driven mother fucker of a rock album. The Darkness understand themselves as a parody, and yet on Permission to Land still manage to craft unbelievably crisp rock music. Get Your Hands Off My Woman, I Believe in A Thing Called Love, Love is Only a Feeling, Growing on Me, Love on the Rocks With No Ice, and even Holding My Own are all superbly written songs. If there isn't a sick riff, there's a catchy hook. If there's no hook, there's a crazy riff. And finally, let's be honest: who the fuck else can sing like this guy? His high soprano has the potential to become grating, but then he transitions into a very palatable lower tone. Permission to Land is a complete rock record, hearkening back to the classic rock of old, while at the same time injecting a welcome freshness into the music scene of the past 15 years. You only have to watch the music video for I Believe in A Thing Called Love to know what I mean.The Gigantics Die AlreadyThe Mountain Goats Heretic PrideThe Mountain Goats All Eternals Deckbeen listening all afternoon and it's once again a Darnielle-masterpiece complete with a slightly darker atmosphere and perfect string arrangements. and Darnielle's explanation of the album is spot on: "If you have ever watched say a 70s occult-scare movie where one of the scenes involves a few people visiting a storefront fortune teller, getting their cards read, and then trying to feel super-hopeful about their predicted outcome when what they're visibly actually feeling is dread, then you have a pretty decent idea of what the album is all about."The Weakerthans Left and LeavingThe Weakerthans FallowThe Weakerthans Reunion TourThe Weakerthans Live At Burton Cummings TheatreThrice The Alchemy Index Vols.

Refined yet aggressive, the band manages to grasp all aspects of their sound over the years and subtly weave them into every second of Beggars. From the airy atmosphere of Circles to the conviction of Beggars, Thrice's latest album includes every reason why we love them. Beggars envelopes the sound of Thrice into a masterpiece. Oh, and of course, lyrically it is perfect.Trans-Siberian Orchestra The Lost Christmas EveTrent Reznor and Atticus Ross The Social NetworkA foreboding electronic/ambient masterpiece backing one of the most important films of our generation.Ulver BergtattYndi Halda Enjoy Eternal BlissLife-changing post-rock that will change your life.

It contains some of Coheed's best tracks: No World For Tomorrow, The Running Free, Gravemakers & Gunslingers. The End Complete series rivals The Willing Well, and the pop sensibilities found on tracks like Feathers and Mother Superior are the best executed of the band's career. Coldworld MelancholieConcert Silence Rain FurnitureA much better combination of the talents of Matthew Cooper and Charles Buckingham. Second track "Strange Footing" is a standout ambient number, throwing distorted ambience over a consistent reverbed beat. The album's three songs flow much more cohesively than 9.22.07, and hopefully Concert Silence take their project in this direction.Converge You Fail MeCreedence Clearwater Revival Green RiverCreedence Clearwater Revival Chronicle, Vol. 1Cult of Luna SalvationDaft Punk DiscoveryDan Mangan Nice, Nice, Very NiceDark Time Sunshine VesselDark Tranquillity FictionDarkthrone A Blaze in the Northern SkyDc Talk SupernaturalDeath Individual Thought PatternsDeath HumanDeathevokatioN The Chalice Of AgesDecapitated NihilityDefeater Lost GroundDepartures EscapingWeak Before Winter = SOTY contender no doubt about itDessa False HopesDinosaur Jr. FarmDiscordance Axis The Inalienable DreamlessDoomtree False Hopes XVdredg El CieloDrudkh Forgotten LegendsDrudkh Autumn AuroraDrudkh MicrocosmosDustin Kensrue Please Come HomeEast of the Wall Farmer's AlmanacElectric President The Violent BlueElliott Smith Either/OrIn the album title Elliot Smith references Soren Kierkegaard.Eluvium Talk Amongst the TreesEluvium When I Live by the Garden and the SeaEluvium An Accidental Memory in the Case of DeathEluvium SimilesEmery The QuestionEsmerine AuroraExotic Animal Petting Zoo I Have Made My Bed in DarknessExplosions in the Sky The Earth is Not a Cold Dead PlaceFair to Midland Fables From a MayflyFightstar Be HumanFilm School alwaysneverFrank Ocean Channel OrangeFrightened Rabbit The Winter of Mixed DrinksFrightened Rabbit State HospitalGlass Casket We Are Gathered Here Today...Glue Sunset LodgeGod Is An Astronaut All Is Violent, All Is BrightGood Luck Into Lake GriffyGospel The Moon Is a Dead WorldGrizzly Bear ShieldsHacksaw to the Throat WastelandsHaste the Day That They May Know YouHawkboy King FollyHe Is Legend Suck Out The PoisonHe Is Legend It Hates YouHorse Feathers House With No HomeHouse Of Heroes The End is Not The EndHRVRD The Inevitable And IIkuinen Kaamos ClosureIMAKEMADBEATS IMAKEMADBEATSIn Vain MantraOn Mantra, In Vain do everything exactly right except for one thing. The black metal swirls and screams pierce, the death metal riffs and growls rip, and the soaring melodic vocal harmonies....well, soar. The band refines their progressive approach to death/black metal as well, with more overt acoustic sections and one very blues-like track that shouldn't fit but does (Mannefall). In fact, I would say they do all of these things perfectly, and this album could be a classic if not for this hindrance:"Wayakin." The song is basically 9 minutes of a Native American man talking about owls and wolves and lands being taken away with some riffs thrown in. This would be cool if these guys had a Native American ancestry, but they're not even American, so it is incredibly contrived. Eliminate "Wayakin" and In Vain have created another classic progressive metal masterpiece. rRecommended Tracks: Captivating Solitude; Ain't No Lovin'; Dark Prophets, Black Hearts; On the Banks of the Mississippi; Sombre Fall, Burdened Winter (basically all of them but Wayakin) Irepress Samus OctologyIron & Wine Our Endless Numbered DaysIron & Wine The Sea and the Rhythm EPIron & Wine Around the WellIsland OrakelJaga Jazzist What We MustJames Blake CMYKJames Blake KlavierwerkeJames Blake OvergrownJay-Z and Kanye West Watch the ThroneJim Bryson and The Weakerthans The Falcon Lake IncidentTFLI is not a Weakerthans album. It's a Jim Bryson and The Weakerthans album. As a huuuge Weakerthans fan, that took me a long time to come to terms with, but as I let myself enjoy Bryson's lyrics without comparing them to Samson's I discovered a record that is intimate, warm, and meticulously (but not boringly) performed. I'd encourage anyone who dismissed this after their first listen to listen 10 more times; the subtleties here will slowly begin to leak out and you'll realize you are listening to an album on par with the best of 2010.Jimmy Eat World Bleed AmericanJimmy Eat World FuturesKalmah SwampsongKayo Dot Choirs of the EyeKishi Bashi 151aLa Verite ElephantLantlos .neonLaura Stevenson Holy Ghost!Liz Durrett The MezzanineLiz Janes Say GoodbyeMae The EverglowMajority Rule Emergency NumbersManchester Orchestra Simple MathMartriden The Unsettling DarkMasta Ace Disposable ArtsMatthew Robert Cooper MiniaturesMaxwell BLACKsummers'nightMaybeshewill Not For Want Of TryingMayday Parade Tales Told By Dead FriendsMayday Parade A Lesson In RomanticsMemoryhouse The YearsMew FrengersMew No More StoriesmewithoutYou It's All Crazy!

Instead, the first two tracks are the best here, and the collaborative becomes too artsy fartsy for its own good on parts of the record. Tracks such as Forced Love, Meet Me in the Basement and Romance to the Grave are still golden, but a refinement of the art rock/indie/borderline pretentious sound seems to be in order for the great Broken Social Scene.

After months of listening and re-listening, I still really could give this anything from a 3-4. The progressive tendencies on Themata are given definition on Sound Awake, and the result is good, but unsettling. Gone are the hooks and in their place are well-written compositions. The progressiveness of Sound Awake also creates a lengthy record which at some points fails to keep its head above water. Overall, a great album, but is it more? Or is it less?

Seriously. Same song writing, same stupid tropes, and the same annoying banjo twanging samey shit each and every song. So why is this even a 2.5? Because despite their glaring flaws and weird ungression (there's no degression or progression here), Mumford and Sons are admittedly cute and endearing. And they have some good one-liners.

The girl sounds like she's burping into the mic, and her cleans are forced. Gimmicks, and some alright breakdowns/weird passages save this from going into the 1's. God, her screams suck.Job for a Cowboy DoomThere is nothing that isn't truly stunning and perfect about this record. Every note, every second is true and utter catharsis; every sound that occurs is perfectly orchestrated to flawlessly illustrate complete doom--and that is something that is so emotionally close to my soul. I can't thank this amazing group enough for blessing me with this. This is perhaps the most life-changing record I've ever heard, and it is my favorite work of art of all time.Johnny Truant In the Library of Horrific EventsLil Wayne Tha Carter IIIMayday Parade Anywhere But HereMayday Parade suffers immensely from the loss of Jason Lancaster on Anywhere But Here. Lancaster delivered excellent, emotional, well-written lyrics on Mayday's debut LP Lesson in Romantics. Also, Mayday no longer has a dual vocal attack, and without him, Mayday is just another pop/punk band, making catchy music that is only that. Unfortunately, it's not catchy enough to warrant many listens. Jason Lancaster, please come back.Mors Principium Est The UnbornOf Mice & Men Of Mice & MenOur Brother The Native Make Amends, For We Are Merely VesselsOur Last Night The Ghosts Among UsSea of Treachery At Dagger's DawnSick Puppies Tri-PolarSkrillex Scary Monsters and Nice SpritesI'll never understand the appeal of womp and giant bass hits.

Horrible lyrics are horrible. Some screams are alright, but others are unbearably scraped from the vocalist's throat. Music is quite generic.
