best of ’10

Looks like we've made it through another year at the office....time to nerd out, here's my fav songs of the year.

1. The Avett Brothers - Laundry Room - A technical 2009 release; it was tough to pick just one song from this album.  Laundry Room has some amazing lyrics (tonight I'll burn the lyrics, cuz every chorus was your name), and a ho-down ending that just barely edged ahead of I and Love and You.

2. The Gaslight Anthem - Bring it On - Another great album full of dandies.  I had a new favourite song from this album almost every week, but this one was the first.

3. Gorillaz - On Melancholy Hill - A perfect spacey dance beat.

4. Aloe Blacc - Femme Fatale - I was always a huge Velvet Underground fan, but never really liked this song.  Well done Aloe.

5 . The Black Keys - Everlasting Light - Another song from an album packed with great songs,  I could've picked any of them.

line of the year race

It's only 6 days into the new year and Trav has already got a solid hold on the 2010 Line of the Year award. This is definitely an attempt to de-crown Howdy after 2009's surprising upset.
