Here's a sad thought. I haven't bought a new cd since July. It's just a product of living in Malaysia where good music's hard to find or editted.

my favorite CDs last year were:

Lil Wayne: Tha Carter III
Foo Fighters: Echoes, Silence (forget the name in its entirety)
Damien Rice: 0 (i love, love, love this)
Damien Rice: 9
Esther Golton: Unfinished Houses

the last one is super close to my heart as its my aunt's best friend from childhood (the track "Going to Shadu" is about them as children and has always been a favorite family story). she plays a Mountain Dulcimer that she made herself and her music is simple. it acoustic and very pretty and she tells a lot of good stories. since i have owned the album, 3 of the songs on it have made it to the 25 Most Played list on ipod, which is impressive since i have 5900+ songs. :) anyway, her website is esthergolton.com and you can link to her myspace there, where you can hear her songs. also, she is selling signed copies of her CD to the end of the month, if you want a real CD, but you can get it off itunes too. :) /commerical.

some of my all time favs are anything by Duncan Sheik, Toad the Wet Sprocket and Tori Amos. :)

So I also give you:
Raveonettes - Lust Lust Lust (their newest, but I recommend ALL!)
Lucky Soul - The Great Unwanted
Band of Horses - (any and all, I didn't MEAN to like them...but I am. Can't be helped)
Los Campesinos! - We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed
Coconut Records - (Don't have yet, but I've been digging a couple singles and plan to buy that one next)
