Decade List

I told myself a million times that I wouldn't make a "decade" list, but as I was going through all of the music I've collected over the past 10 years, and I began organizing them into a series of favorites. Although I'm missing many albums on this list (remind me of them, if you notice what's missing) I've tried to remember what albums specifically had a way with me. And this is all I could come up with. Curse my need to arrange things in groups and lists, but here it is. If you must know why I picked a certain album over another, just ask.

9. O Damien Rice (2002)
8. Veckatimest Grizzly Bear (2009)
7. Fox Confessor Brings The Flood Neko Case (2006)
