Well here they are, my top five for 2007. The links for the rest are at the bottom.
5. Peter, Bjorn & John - Writer's Block. A delight from start to finish. Full of crafty pop songs that are also smooth and delightful.
4. Okkervil River - The Stage Names. Great songwriting coupled with great melodies and a barrage of instruments. Well crafted with a sober side too.
3. Twilight Sad - Fourteen Autumns & Fifteen Winters. Exhilarating drama with pure emotion that absorbs the listener.
2. LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver. A near-perfect CD, blending indie-rock and dance like no other.
1. Datarock - Datarock Datarock. It's a worship of spastic rock, with lots of dance, twisted humor and rave.
