Albums of 2011
This was a tale of two moods year. The beginning of the year was all moody introspective albums where you can imagine me standing in the rain and not caring, while the second half was all cheery rebirth stuff primarily because I’d met my girlfriend and we were having a great time listening to music [...]
Albums of 2010
Had a lot of time to listen to music this year, with about 5 months off work in total, yet somehow I didn’t listen enough. The dance trend of last year has continued and I’m starting to question where my indie roots are going, without an Arcade Fire or Midlake album in sight. I think [...]

Albums of 2007
I always look forward to this time of year because I get to look back on all the music I’ve listened to over the past year and review them. It also means that I notice the albums that I missed because I was too busy in lust with other albums to pay attention to what [...]
