Here it is: 2005. The year I've been mildly not looking forward to. How people who have 50+ albums a year can manage to compile any sort of "Best of ___" list is beyond me. This year saw 31 albums for me! That is a personal best. 2005 was just a good year for me personally, too, if but for a short while. Maybe that had something to do with it? Anyway, with over 30 albums I have to list fifteen albums here, and sometimes the ranking is a little sketchy. Pretty sure on the first seven though:


1. Mew - And The Glass Handed Kites


2. Foo Fighters - In Your Honor


3. My Morning Jacket - Z


4. Doves - Some Cities


5. Giant Drag - Hearts And Unicorns


6. Starflyer 59 - Talking Voice vs. Singing Voice


7. Maria Taylor - 11:11


8. Nada Surf - The Weight Is a Gift


9. Bright Eyes - Digital Ash in a Digital Urn


10. The New Pornographers - Twin Cinema


11. The Like - Are You Thinking What I'm Thinking?


12. dredg - Catch Without Arms


13. Sufjan Stevens - Illinois


14. Cave In - Perfect Pitch Black


15. The Life and Times- Suburban Hymns

Hmm, four of these artists still haven't released follow-ups. And thus, the tide of the recording industry begins to change. . .

Or does it? Both Maria Taylor and Starflyer 59 have released two albums each in the same span. What the--?
