What's your top 5 indie albums from this year so far?

music_phantom13 · 10-15-2009, 07:52 AM

Dinosaur Jr - Farm
The Flaming Lips - Embryonic
Railcars - Cathedral with No Eyes (it's a mini-album but it's so damn good I don't care)
Mt. Eerie - Wind's Poem

Not sure what the last one is yet, I'm torn between Timber Timbre, A Sunny Day in Glasgow, and Dalek. And Amesoeurs is up there. Those are in no particular order, except that those are my top 4 and one of those others would be number 5. I've really enjoyed this year in music, personally I thought there was a ton of fantastic music. What're yours? You can't make the post and not list them!!!

EDIT: Dear god, I forgot Earthly Delights. That's also tied for number 5.

In no particular order

Heartless Bastards - The Mountain

Flaming Lips - Embryonic (I'm going to have to listen a couple more times but after my first listen i'm loving it. The song with Karen O is nuts).

Matt & Kim - Grand (I can't listen to this album without smiling).

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes (I heard these guys on a mix cd and I've been hooked ever since).

The Decemberists - The Hazards of Love (One of the best shows I've ever seen).
