Such a beautifully constructed, intelligent, poignant album. It just feels instantly familiar, almost as if they are singing directly to me. Amazing. It grows on you as well.. "Montezuma" is not only fantastic, in my mind, it is career-defining.

Lupe Fiasco Lasers2.0
It's formulaic, forced, unintelligent and uninteresting. With the exception of a couple of tracks, ("All Black Everything", "I'm Beamin") this is a typical radio hip-hop album. For someone who claims to be hip-hop's saviour, you have to do better.
Radiohead The King of Limbs4.0
Headphone album. Danceable headphone album. Kinda. It's weird.
Frank Ocean Nostalgia, Ultra.4.0

Fantastic album. "Limit To Your Love" is like D'Angelo mixed with Burial...and that is a wonderful combination.

So. Much. Fun! I don't have much else to say, but this has to be 50 characters... blah blah blah, lots of hooks etc etc etc

2010..
Incredible year for music. I loved "Trees, Swallows, Houses" but this is something else. So layered and intricate yet catchy and fun. My end of year list is going to be tough...
The Roots How I Got Over4.0
Janelle Monae The ArchAndroid4.5
This is what music is about. Experimentation, passion and talent. Absolutely brilliant album by Monae, and she does what only the greats do; (Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna, David Bowie, etc) she crosses over into all sorts of different styles while making it unique and special.
So close to being a classic. If not for that Of Montreal track...
Minus the Bear Omni2.5
In all honesty, OMNI just wasn't what I was expecting. It isn't bad, but I just wasn't wowed at all, which is a shame.

It's easy to go on about how they changed their style, and how they are a shadow of what they used to be, or how George sounds awful, or whatever. The fact of the matter is, these are a great collection of rock songs, with some of their catchiest and most accessible material to date. George may not sound great, but you can't scream like that for 8 years and expect to have a great voice can you? So stop hating it for what it isn't and start embracing it for what it is.

Awesome. Purely awesome. Cursive have done it again, and they have proved that they are clearly one of the most underrated but brilliant bands around at the moment.
"From the Hips" is just genius.
The Lonely Island Incredibad4.0
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Lonely Road1.5
The most GENERIC album I have ever heard in my entire life. It's like they took all the most mediocre parts from all the most mediocre bands in the genre, to make some kind of mediocre super-being. Kinda like Doomsday in the Superman comics...only this will bore the public to death instead of mauling them. Ugh..

A more forceful effort than "Watch Out!". This has a singular purpose, to represent anger, but in different, interesting formats, from the brooding of "You Burn First" to the vitriol of "We Are The End".

Alexisonfire Watch Out!5.0
One of the finest post-hardcore albums of all time. The passion put into it makes it worth a five, but it's those little moments, like the beginning of "Sharks and Danger" or the almost ambient parts in "Happiness by the Kilowatt". It has this subtle energy, despite the screaming and raging guitars (which are incidentally excellent). It just feels...alive.

At the Drive-In Relationship of Command5.0
A tour-de-force of rock music. I don't care what Cedric Bixler-Zavala is saying, I don't care if the guitars are rather sloppy, or that the production isn't perfect. Those things are what makes this album hit me so hard; the fact that it's just rock in it's purest form. It makes a person move and yell and let all that shit that suburban life (which I'm assuming most of it's listeners experience) puts into you get released.
