| Elliott Smith Either/Or |
| Elliott Smith was never someone you would say was stable. However, he was a more than adept guitarist and capable of creating fantastic melodies. He was one of the best songwriters, able to evoke emotion in any song. This album, as with anything else he's done, solidifies him as one of the best musicians of all time, and not just within his genre. |

| These guys know how to write songs. Lyrically, its easy to see what they stand for. Musically, these guys know what they're doing. Fantastic album! |
| Refused The Shape Of Punk To Come |
| Streetlight Manifesto Everything Goes Numb |
| Catchy melodies, song-writing that can scarce be seen, and every track a killer. If this isn't a classic album, I don't know what is. |

| The Gaslight Anthem The '59 Sound |
| The National High Violet |

| The Replacements Let It Be |
| Titus Andronicus The Monitor |
| They manage to create a feeling which anyone can relate to. Its messy, unorganized, brash, raw and fantastic. It evokes actual emotional response, which is something I can say about very few albums. |
