My Top 10 Records of 2010

Well this year as far as albums go was pretty awesome. I listen to a very wide array of music but I think I’ve narrowed down my favorites. The ones that almost made my list were:

Recovery by Eminem

Big Echo by The Morning Benders

Buzzard by Margot & The Nuclear So and So’s

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire

High Violet by The National

Without further ado my top 10.

10. The Medicine by John Mark McMillan

9. Famous Places by Goldmund

8. Brothers by The Black Keys

7. Treats by Sleigh Bells

6. Total Life Forever by Foals

5. Go by Jonsi

4. Heaven & Earth by Phil Wickham

3. Beautiful Things by Gungor

2. Sigh No More by Mumford and Sons

1. Flamingo by Brandon Flowers

And what a great year it was.  Flamingo won it for me just because of the lyrics and the vibe the record puts out. I absolutely love it. And Flowers said it best when he was asked to speak about Flamingo… “I write Killers songs, thats all i know.” But I truly do love his solo project and I love this album with or without the killers being behind him. I can’t wait for next year and the albums to come. And I just happened to hear that the killers are back in May of 2011. Get ready friends! Merry Christmas!!
