I know there's a sickening amount of 100s going on but this one we'll be finished. It's basically all the albums I've gotten into this past year. I also decided none of the albums/artists on the old 100 are going on here just because they're pretty predictable anyway even if only about 20% of them would've made it on here.
100. Port O'Brien:
The Wind and the Swell
You'd think after the Decemberists and Modest Mouse indie bands would drop the sea imagery but Port O'Brien decided to take it to a new level with their shout along songs of being a Fisherman's son they take you into their history of the life of a salty sea dog, sometimes sad and stormy sometimes happy and hot, but always exciting.
