This MY list of favorite albums this years, not necessarily the best. I'm sure the list will change as I re-listen to other albums or give a listen to those I've missed.

In alphabetical order:

Arcade Fire - The Suburbs

Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Before Today

Best Coast - Crazy For You

Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty

Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest

GAYNGS - Relayted

Janelle Monáe - The ArchAndroid

Joanna Newsom - Have One on Me

Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Sade - Soldier of Love

Sleigh Bells - Treats

Sufjan Stevens - The Age of Adz

Tame Impala - Innerspeaker

I'm impressed . An American including Tame Impala in his top 10 list...

Incidentally, they just won the TripleJ (Australia's Indie Radio station) gong for album of the Year.

Not so impressed with the Kanye West choice tho'. Can't understand what anyone sees in him. He doesn't sing - he just has this really annoying nasal whine that drives me up the wall. Then again, from what I have seen, he appears to be a self absorbed whiney little shit in R/L...so I suppose it kinda fits...(oh well - one mans meat, etc...)

Music has no geographical boundaries.

You should give the Kanye West several listens. Check out the lyrics too. You might be surprised.

So TriBI, what caught your ear in 2010?

Gayngs will definitely be on mine when I get around to it, possibly #1 as it's definitely my most-listened to. I'm glad to see someone else enjoying it. Despite loving Deerhunter, I haven't really gotten into Halcyon Digest.
I quite liked Tame Impala as well.

 

[bluedragon4]

I loved the two Black Eyed Peas CD's that came out this year. Was never a fan b4 but have them on repeat.

Looking forward to seeing your list.

 

[evilest]

Fleshtone by Kelis and Happiness by Hurts are the only two that have really interested my this year.

 

[GamerBear]

I had a ton of albums this year that I enjoyed a lot. But here is my list.

1. Tank - Now or Never (Hottest album I've heard so far, really underrated artist)

2. Ne-Yo - Libra Scale (Close second with Tank but only a few songs that I enjoyed)

3. Prince - 20Ten (Wasn't released world wide but should of been since its damn good)

4. Kylie Minogue - Aphrodite (Really great album)

5. Usher - Raymond v. Raymond (Had a good amount of songs that I enjoyed wish Lil' Freak got played more on the radio cause it was a damn good song)

6. Heart - Red Velvet Car (Nice come back album kind of a different style from the old stuff they use to play)

7. Toni Braxton - Pulse (It was good to hear more music from her, but not a lot of good catchy songs on this album)

8. Rihanna - Loud (I think this album was better than her Rated R album but a few songs I tend to skip)

9. Michael Jackson - Michael (Kind of heard a few songs from old demos but I still think its good a album hopefully he has more hidden rare gems stashed away and they will release more in the future)

10. Keith Sweat - Ridin Solo (His voice is slowly going out and it sucks he's having to deal with the fake rumors about his death on Twitter)

i feel like something will be bumped from the listen for Ryan Adams & The Cardinal's new one, because the stuff i've heard from it sounds amazing... it comes out this Tuesday.
kind of sad to see no love for The Hold Steady, Spoon or Ted Leo here...
and i think anyone who doesn't have Big Boi in their top 10 is an idiot.

 

[westindianstud]

1) Still Standing by Monica
2) Recovery by Eminem
3) Soldier of Love by Sade
4) Progress by Take That
5) The Defamation of Strickland Banks by Plan B
6) Come Around Sundown by Kings Of Leon

6 Sleigh Bells: Treats
5 LCD Soundsystem: This Is Happening
4 Janelle Monáe: The ArchAndroid
