Top 10 list of 2003
I always enjoy reading these, but I don't think I've ever actually done one. I always end up hearing records long after they are released, so I'm sure there are a bunch of records that came out last year that I will eventually like more than some of the ones I list here.
In no particualer order:
The Darkness - Permission to Land
50 Cent - Get Rich or die tryin'
Guided By Voices - Earthquake Glue
My Morning Jacket - It Still Moves
Ted Leo and the Pharmacists - Heart of Oak
The Rapture - Echoes
The Shins - Chutes too Narrow
Grandaddy - Sumday
Yeah Yeah Yeahs- Fever to Tell
Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Crematorium
honorable mentions:
Outkast - Speakerboxxx / the Love Below
The Strokes - Room on Fire
The White Stripes - Elephant
I also am looking forward to hearing full lengths that came out last year from:
Dizzee Rascal
Danger Mouse
The Decemberists
I know this list isn't exactly breaking any new ground, but I don't really care. I enjoy these records, so fuck off.
