Oh man. This makes me realize how little new music I've bought this year.

1. Speakerboxx/The Love Below
2. Dear Catastrophe Waitress
3. Hail To The Thief

What's sad is that if I had bought all the music I've been meaning to buy, those second two, while excellent, might not even make it on the list.  I'm just certain that there are other albums, yet unlistened to by me, that would take precedence over anything else I've bought this year, so I can't with in good heart complete a list of five.

mister mister

I totally agree with you - There's heaps of other albums I would have liked to have bought - but lack of money and pure laziness has stopped that I guess.

Also, I've bought heaps of other cds that weren't released this year - ones that I've sort of caught up on.

Damn, I want a $50, 000 gift voucher to a record store!

I really haven't bought many albums this year.  But from what I have got:

White Stripes 'Elephant'
The Strokes 'Room on Fire'
Beck 'Sea Changes' (did that come out this year??)

and I really like what I've heard of the new Radiohead and Outkast; so yeah, pretty typical choices across the board for me.

SoNowThen

Hail To The Thief - Radiohead
Love Is Hell - Ryan Adams
Take Them On, On Your Own - BRMC
Youth And Young Manhood - Kings Of Leon
Room On Fire - Strokes
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.
