I wasn't that impressed with PJ Harvey's newest album at all, or BRMC or the Vines.
Actually the vines was just awful.

Winning days wasn't as good as Highly Evolved. But it still deserves to be in my top 10 it has it's moments, and plus it is 100 times better then any pop-punk album released this year.

^^ Pj Harvey's was a re-release of Uh Huh Her, which was originally released a while ago (i dont remember when). But, it wasnt as good as Stories From the City, Stories From the Sea or To Bring You My Love.
And I agree with your comment about the Vines, although I never liked them to begin with.

Personally i think BRMC's "take them on, on your own" was the best album i heard and/or bought all year. suddenly, stop and six barrel shotgun should be alternative classics.

A lot of these lists look the same. I don't understand the fuss over some of the artists: interpol, modest mouse, franz, and the hives. These groups are probably given lots of attention for being the orgasm-of-the-year for total request junkies. do you think anyone woulda cared about modest mouse's new record if they didnt sign to a major label. after all, their older cd's were just as good if not a lot better than Good News. And, interpol's cd was overrated, not any better than Turn off the bright lights. and, franz- please. That 'take me out' song will probably be their bread and butter for the rest of their lives. And, the hives- i have no comment, because i never liked them or listen to them closely. Couple of others that werent that great were the Thrills album (just listen to it), the new Cure, and the beastie boys (highly overrated).

Wow I could have written that myself.

It`s almost like people are told what to like & whats good.
