This is it people, the moment you've all been waiting for! Well, probably not, but it's the moment I've been waiting for. I've finally ranked my favourite albums of 2005.

I've come to the horrible realization that The Most Serene Republic's album actually came out in 2004, then was re-released on the A&C label in 2005. My list is ruined!

It scares the hell out of me that there's apparently a band/artist called "The Silver Jews"...

Woo for Caleb and HMV!

UR TASTE SUCKS LOL

Seriously though, listen to The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw by Pelican. If it doesn't blow your mind, you're allowed to punch me.

Okay sure, I will. I'm not sure what to recommend in return. Well, the National I'd like everyone to hear and I think you'd also be a fan of Sleater-Kinney. Maybe Mew and Okkervil River as well.
