Sometime between now and before Christmas there will be two lists out from me on this site: some of the most overlooked bands and artists of the decade and the 402 Productions’ albums of the year. However, sometime between now and the 17th I have essays and finals. So, sadly, reviewing and such has gone by the wayside in the past couple weeks. A good amount of the albums I’ve chosen for nominees have reviews on this site already, but the ones that don’t will have reviews the day of the list dropping.

So, here are my choices for choice music from this past year (click on a link to open my review in a new window!):

An Horse – Rearrange Beds

Tegan & Sara – Sainthood

Kevin Devine – Brother’s Blood

Real Estate – S/T

Beirut – March of the Zapotec/Holland

Built to Spill – There Is No Enemy

The Slow Life – Be Not Afraid

David Bazan – Curse Your Branches

Owen – New Leaves

You, Me & Iowa – Aquarium

Malajube – Labyrinthes

Morrissey – Years of Refusal

Fanfarlo – Reservoir

Ace Enders & A Million Different People – When I Hit the Ground

fun. – Aim & Ignite

Rachael Cantu – Far and Wide

p.s. this makes me realize I’ve reviewed a lot of music. Wowza. Pleasepleaseplease check out some of this music via YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Amazon.com :30 samplers, etc. This is some of the most overlooked and under rated music of this year!!
