Best Album Purchased This Year 2005

[ryanator]

Hey everyone!

I'm a huge fan of music and collect heaps of albums. Just wondering what everyone thinks is their best CD for the year.

Mine would have to be "War All The Time" by Thursday. Love having it cranked up while I put down a new brew.

Cheers!

I dont buy too many albums, I am afraid, but the one I am listening to alot ATM is a recording of the Steve Poltz concert I went to at the Brass Monkey in September. Obviously not as polished as a regular album, but still a great listen just the same.
Off topic, I would have to recommend the brass monkey if ya ever wanna go and see a show there, great night, it was a dinner and show deal for $50, right next to the stage, best night I have had out in ages. That said, I dont get out all that often... Oh yeah, no affiliation with the brass monkey.
All the best Trent
PS Just ordered Morning Wood by the Rugburns, so that'll be my new favourite album when it gets here!

It has been a dissappointing year for music releases for me. Some of my favourite bands have had releases this year (Shihad, Rammstein, Audioslave) and none of them really got me in my groove.
Probably the top albums for the year for me would be The White Strips - Get behind me Satan and The Foo Fighters - In your Honor.

I'm sure there is another one or two but I can't recall them right now. iTunes is on my other notebook.

Beers,
Doc

The Veronica's - secret Life of the Veronica's

they rock

:super:

 

[Jez]

but seriously....

System of a Down - Mezmerize got a fair bit of airplay for me earlier this year

and that My Chemical Romance song "Helena"is quite catchy - even if they are crappy pop-punk

American Idiot - Green Day is getting played at bit ATM at home.

Mainly listen to the WMA discs I've made up.

Got Hot Fuss by The Killers a couple of weeks ago, which isn't too bad at all.

Cheers,
Jase.

The Wolfmother album is excellent. I got it off iTunes so not really a CD. But it has been in high rotation on my iPod since.
