Top 10 of 2007...
 

Finally finished it, I Think.

I was without the internet for most of 2007 so I didn't get exposed to as much as I would of liked.
No realistic top 20 for me this year!!!

1) Art of Fighting - runaways (song: mysteries)

2) Great Lake Swimmers - ongiara (song: catcher son)

3) Earlimart - mentor tormentor (song: answers & questions)

4) Lou Barlow - emoh (song: caterpillar girl)

5) Aloha - light works (song: the end)


6) Puressence - dont forget to remember (song: life comes down hard)

7) Emma Pollock - watch the fireworks (song: acidtest)

8) The Coral - roots & echoes (song: in the rain)

9) Iron & Wine - sheperds dog (song: boy with a coin)

10) The Shins - whincing the night away (song: phantom limb)

Earlimart<3 so underrated.
