2009 in a nutshell.
Here it is. What you've waited for all year. *crickets* Yes, well, maybe no one's been waiting for it, but here it is regardless. My "top" ten albums of 2009. Most of these were actually released in 2009, but sometimes not. It takes awhile for what's hip to filter down to my level of uncoolness. Ha, ha, haaaaa. As always, the order is fuzzy.
Zeroswitch's Top 10 Albums of 2009!
Client: Command
The blackheart knows no pity, welcome back to the city.
Hands up, ya got me. Bring it on, what's it gonna be?
Never stop, never stop, can't get enough. Show me what ya got!
Zeromancer: Sinners International
It's hidden well, deep inside... you don't want me to tell you why
Assimilating tears to the floor, I don't know you, any more.
Come on crawl out of my head, Ammonite...
What means nothing, to you...
Means everything to me.
That was then, this is now, gotta get through somehow...
Yeah gotta get through somehow!
Tegan and Sara: Sainthood
Stop crying to the ocean, stop crying over me...
Stop worrying over nothing, stop worrying over me...
So... it's been so long since you said,
Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you.
SITD: Rot
No pictures of delight, the king was blind with fear
He tried to find the strength he needs, to calm the doubts of his belief
As darkness fall, the waves roll by...
He's not afraid to die.
All that you love, all that you hate, is lost...
All you destroy, all you create, is gone...
Ladytron: Velocifero
I cheated gravity to chase you, to chase you.
And through the burning space between us, you're falling.
You have a long way, long way to fall.
I set myself on fire without you, without you...
Metric: Fantasies
All the gold, and the guns, and the girls, in the world, couldn't get you off...
I remember when we were gambling to win
Everybody else said better luck next time
I don't wanna bend like the bad girls bend
I just wanna be your friend,
is it ever gonna be enough?
Cockatoo: Basement Tapes
And everything I touch I touch I touch all turns to ash...
Everything I touch I touch I touch beyond my grasp...
The Prodigy: Invaders Must Die!
Now! The writing's on the wall, it won't go away.
It's an omen!
You just run on automation.
Zero Tolerance: Just Another Nightmare Scenario
I exist, within your shadows...
And there's a face he shows only to himself.
These behaviours, could interpreted as... schizophrenia.
There's a face he doesn't even SEE himself.
A secret place of himself, he keeps hidden, locked away. Until he needs it.
Away from the light, safe in the shadows.
Lily Allen: It's not me, it's you.
So your daughter's depressed, we'll get her straight on the prozac.
But little do you know, she already takes crack.
The kids are in danger, they're all getting habits.
Because from what I can see, everyone's at it.
