Biggest disappointment this year: “Skeletal Lamping” by Of Montreal. I love this band but I just didn’t get this last record.

Next year is looking to be a great year as well. I’ve already gotten an advanced copy of Ben Kweller’s “Changing Horses” which is awesome. And I can’t wait for “Hazards of Love” by the Decemberists.

Many thanks to all my friends on Tumblr, last.fm and the hype machine for turning me on to so much great music!
