All time low

Some of the albums that have shaped/possessed me over the years

  1. Tennis

    A husband and wife's sailing trip documented with surf guitar and oh oh oh oh oh ohs

  2. Cocteau Twins

  3. The Hives

    Howling Pelle Almqvist and the boys bringing scorching punk rock directly from Sweden.

  4. If a therapy session was an album, this would be it

  5. Björk

  6. Veronica Falls

  7. Diana Krall

  8. M.I.A.

  9. Feist

  10. Ani DiFranco

    An absolute tour de force featuring Ani and her cracker jack band at the absolute height of their power.

  11. Tim Booth, Angelo Badalamenti

    A seemingly odd pairing of Tim Booth and Angelo Badalamenti worked incredibly well.

  12. Uncle Tupelo

    A Peter Buck produced album full of coal mining and moonshining songs featuring a budding Jeff Tweedy.

  13. Goldfrapp

  14. Beach House

    Baltimore's answer to the white stripes with Vikki Legrand's languid vocals and plenty of keyboard drone and stretched out slide guitar.

  15. Those Darlins

    A hidden gem with plenty of punk rock sneer and nervous energy .

  16. Everything But The Girl

    ETBTG's drum and bass comeback was a pleasant surprise. Tracy brought her smooth delivery to the dance floor.

  17. Sloan

    The Canidian powerhouse on there inaugural effort. Also probably my favorite album of my highschool years.

  18. The Jayhawks

    Ahh, the album with the fuzz face on the inside cover, a true alt country classic.

  22. Sharon Van Etten

  23. Brendan Benson

  24. LCD Soundsystem

  25. Dum Dum Girls

  28. I remember listening to this at the borders at Arborland. I was pretty stoked and had to buy the CD right away. I think this was my 1st proper introduction to the Riot Girl aesthetic.
