Bryan over at herohill has several “top ten” lists for 2007. This includes top ten EPs, LPs, Canadian LPs, etc, etc. Bryan has lots of lists cause he listens to a horrible about of music and seems to enjoy writing about it. I, on the other hand, rarely found the urge to write about music in 2007. I think this occured because of three reasons. One, my music snobbery has caught up with me and I don’t enjoy listening to random stuff or going to concerts nearly as much as I used to. Two, oink got shut down. And three, since I have no musical talent nor training I have a good bit of trouble describing the music I like short of saying “This album/song/etc is stupidly good. You’d be a fool to not love it”.
So in the coming days I’m just going to point out stuff that I loved this year and for which you’d be a fucking fool to disagree.
You’d be a fool to think I like writing about it… I just have gone too far to pull out now.
PS - lists are not fun either
