Top 10 for 2006

In order to celebrate my first end-of-the-year as a music blogger, I’m doing the honorable thing and creating a top 10 list for 2006.

I know. Totally original and totally unheard-of. I bet you won’t see any of these albums on anyone else’s lists, either. I’ve even included an album from late 2005. If that’s not “indie” then I don’t know what is.

• 10. Aereogramme – My Heart Has a Wish That You Would Not Go (2007)
  
• 9. The Decemberists – The Crane Wife – Yankee Bayonet
  
• 8. Joanna Newsome – Ys – Cosmia
  
• 7. Beirut – Gulag Orkestar
• 6. Midlake – The Trials of Van Occupanther – Head Home
  
• 5. Sound Team – Movie Monster – Head Home
  
• 4. The Long Winters – Putting The Days To Bed – Rich Wife
  
• 3. Mew – The Zookeeper’s Boy EP – Am I Wry? No.
  
• 2. Tristeza – A Colores (2005) – Balabaristas
  
• 1. Voxtrot – Mothers, Sisters, Daughters & Wives EP – Mothers, Sisters, Daughters & Wives
  

PS: I was going to include links to a song from each album, but since EZArchive is fuxxored and totally useless now, I’ll have to figure something else out.

PPS: Dammit. I guess the Aereogramme album isn’t out until 2007. Guess I’m going to have to re-work this list…
