2009 - Anticlimatic & Somewhat Predictable Lists

That title can only mean one thing! Not quite as snappy as it could have been but hey, I don't get paid to write this. In fact I only do it to amuse myself and that title fulfilled that role for me. So I'm just going to bash them out like a thirteen year old home alone with the internet. Charming.

So there you have it. Amazing how little of my music is from this year, but that's the truth it seems. Good job there isn't a similar program for the 360. That one would be all out of whack too then. Bloody Blue Dragon would be in there too. Anyway, roll on 2010 and that.

*I made a compendium album of the b-sides and labelled it thus. Can't believe it made it to be honest.
** It was a three way tie but I went for the one that wasn't by Frightened Rabbit

  1. im not a gamer meself (i mean i used to be back in arcade and early nintendo/sega era) but recently i have enjoyed playing two games:
    1. Machinarium
    2. The Monkey Island Tales (just started playing the first chapter)

    Anyway you have a neat taste in indie and it's good to see LCD Soundsystem fans around.
