why: because it never fails that every year I leave out at least one amazing album from my "Best of" lists... In 2006 it was Manchester Orchestra and This Will Destroy You. In 2007, Lady Radiator. In 2008, I somehow missed out on all of Bon Iver, The Glass Ocean, La Dispute and Wild Sweet Orange's albums.
And now it's just barely 2010 and I've already found two albums I managed to ignore last year. Fans of Brand New need to immediately hop on The Republic of Wolves bandwagon. If you liked 'Daisy', I guarantee you won't be disappointed in this, their debut EP - 'His Old Branches'. Lala isn't streaming their album yet, but be sure to check out their myspace for a few choice tracks.
The Temper Trap are the latest belated edition to my essential albums list. I don't really know the best way to describe their sound so I'll just go with what their twitter says - "4 aussie kids just rockin' it". This album caught me immediately... I listened to it on repeat all day and I still can't get enough.
