Posted: January 4th, 2010 | Author: Andy | Filed under: music | 1 Comment »

I do like a good list and the top ten albums of the decade is a really interesting one. Here is mine, I can’t bring myself to put them in a Top 10 style order, just take them all as equal. There is also a spotify playlist if you fancy (although it doesn’t have the Boards of Canada album).

  • British Sea Power – Open Season
  • Eels – Blinking Lights and Other Revelations
  • Strokes – Is This It
  • Elliott Smith – From a Basement on the Hill
  • Battles – Mirrored
  • Green Day – American Idiot
  • Hold Steady – Boys and Girls in America
  • Eels – Souljacker
  • Boards of Canada – The Campfire Headphase
  • Modest Mouse – Good News for People Who Love Bad News

Mixtapes

Stumbled upon this awesome little site today that allows users to create online mixtapes. Yay retro. Mixwit uses seeqpod to find and play its music via its very easy to use flash app. I fear it won’t bring back the glory days of the mixtape, but its still rather cool.

This is making me want to go watch “High Fidelity” one more time.
