Of all the bands/musicians listed above I have only ever heard of Clutch, Kanye West (only because of what he said after Katrina), and Franz Ferdinand. I have never heard of any of the others. I am completely out of touch with the music scene.

Kanye West may be a complete fool, but he makes good music. Who put this list togather?

surprisingly I like most of the bands listed under best of... however, I wonder who/what this list is from... I'd add Art Brut to the best of list... along with the Soviettes.

I'm listening to Blast Tyrant by Clutch in the car today. Here's the video for Mob Goes Wild from that album, which came out in 2004. I think I like Robot Hive/Exodus better, but RH/E is more southern groove style than BT. They're like a combination of Kyuss, Monster Magnet, and Rage Against the Machine. Best lyricist in the game. It helps to have an encyclopedia nearby.

I'm only 23, and I feel like I'm already out of touch with modern music. Whenever I buy a CD these days it's usually something from the past 30 years rather than anything fresh on the shelf... I just don't feel any overwhelming urge to actively seek out interesting new music.
Any older FOFC'ers remember when they reached this stage? I always thought I would have been in my 30s or so before this happened to me.

Blech... hated the album with a super-passion and would certain pile on the "completely overhyped" listing there. I love debating this sort of stuff and plan on having a list up by the end of the night.

Yeah I bought Coldplay's latest album, mainly because I'm going to see them next year with some friends so I wanted to know the new songs. I've only given it the one listen and was under-whelmed, but I'll give it a few more tries. I liked Parachutes and Rush of Blood to the Head.
Only "new" bands I look forward to seeing new releases from are Tool (though even this is faltering a little, as I don't listen to their old stuff nearly as much as I used to), Radiohead and, most of all, the Flaming Lips.

Looking back on it, I was the same way during my 20s. I think what happens is that if you catch it just right, the stuff you liked in high school and/or college falls out of favor and you end up missing out on the "next big thing" because, well, you've got a life now. I graduated high school in 1989, right at the end of the metal/hard rock era, and during college and a couple of years after, I grabbed onto the grunge/industrial/alt-rock scene, but lost interest in it by the mid-to-late 90s. And I haven't listened to 90% of that stuff in a decade. Only looking back now do I realize how aimless I was and how I had lost interest in music, because I didn't know what I liked, I just knew I didn't like what was "in" at the time. Right about the time I hit 30, I discovered power pop and European metal, and now I have a good idea of what I like and what I don't. Ikeep up with what is current in the types of music I like, but stil find time for the older stuff of my youth. The stuff from my 20s I rarely touch.

You got me excited there, thought there was a new Orange Juice cd after all these years. Even though it's a collection of old recordings, it's still zoomed to the top of my must by list. Not sure how a collection of recordings from 25 years ago can get into best of 2005 though  |

Normally I'd cut some slack for someone with a Thursday sig, but the guy is a douche. A complete publicity whore. He's basically been begging for a Grammy. It's kind of sad. The dude also said "my album will enter the history books". You gotta be kidding me. I wouldn't even put it in the top 10 rap albums of 2005. He may have produced the best rap album of the year with Common's "Be", but that's about it. I like the fact that he seems to really care and is passionate about his music, but Late Registration does not even come close to warrant the amount of hype it's received. |

I agree with everything here. (Except thet Thursday aren't my cup of tea, but hey...) Kanye has an ego the size of Venus. He is a top producer, one of the best around, but his MC'ing is so unbelivelably rigid and terse I find it difficult to see past his rapping when listening to one of his tracks. He should stay behind the spotlight and shut up, like he did before. |

Where's the love for The Hold Steady's 'Seperation Sunday'? I'd rather listen to that record 8000 times over than hear another 10 seconds of Art Brut.
"Sold your CD! I sold your CD.......lookit me! I sold your CD!" I also heart Bonnie 'Prince' Billy and Matt Sweeney's 'Superwolf' as well as Spoon's 'Gimme Fiction'. |

If you really listen to what he's saying he's so passionate, and plus his word-play is fascinating. "Maybe you could be my intern, and in turn I could hook you up with a job in winter" "damn K it'd be stupid to diss you, even your superficial raps are super official" |

Fair enough - scratch that then! (Only bought it a month or so ago, so it's new to me )Would have included Kaiser Chiefs as well but was 99% certain that was last year... Can't make my mind up about Hard-Fi: half of the album is fantastic anthemic stuff, half of it just strikes me as pap.

I'm also a huge fan of that Go! Team record, but it was definitely a 2004 release.

Top Rap Albums:
Kanye West "Late Registration" Common "Be" The Game "The Documentary" Little Brother "The Minstrel show" Top R&B Albums: Trey Songz "I Gotta Make It" Mary J Blige "The Breakthrough" Anthony Hamilton "Aint Nobody Worryin" Mariah Carey "The Emancipation of Mimi" Faith Evans "First Lady" Pretty big year for R&B but the same connot be said for rap. Anyone who docks points from Kanye West for his public persona, and that is indeed what it is a persona is ignoring the music. I guess two people can listen to the same thing and basically hear two different things but as far as rap albums go Late Registration was a breath of fresh air and an excellent album.

I'm terrible with top 10 lists by year, since I hear so much stuff, new and old, and I can't keep it all straight. Of the albums I know came out this year and I can remember sitting here at work, these are my favorites:
Opeth - Ghost Reveries King's X - Ogre Tones Roger Joseph Manning, Jr. - Solid State Warrior Clutch - Robot Hive/Exodus Jackdaw4 - Gramophone Logic Sufjan Stevens - Come On Feel the Illinoise! System of a Down - Mezmerize & Hypnotize Nickel Creek - Why Should the Fire Die? Look What I Did! - Minuteman For the Moment Nevermore - This Godless Endeavor I'm sure I missed a couple, but these are the ones I listened to the most.

odd reply bump time, but I'd say my experience has been the opposite. When I was in college, the whole post-punk/new wave revival hadn't hit yet. The Strokes and White Stripes were around for about half of my college life, but for the most part it hadn't really spread as well. Punk was at the end of its revival stage, and rap was at the end of its latest cycle, so for a while I was forced to listen to endless Lil' Jon retreads. Well, about the time I graduated Franz Ferdinand came out, and then bands of similar persuasion started coming out. Still, I hadn't caught on, mainly because I wasn't in an area that played that kind of music (they had a mandatory Metallica every evening, if that tells you something). Then I moved to Charleston, found the rock station, and they were playing all this music I liked. SInce then I've had a bit of a music rebirth. Found the type of music I really enjoy, was even able to find music from the first go-round of the whole post-punk brit-pop thing (which first started around the time I was born). I think with music, it's really just about the type of music you can get exposed to. If I stayed in Greenville, I'd still be inundated with Limp Bizkit and Nickelback every hour. Now I get My Morning Jacket and The Killers. Couldn't be happier, I'm 24 and I'm more or less set in knowing the type of music I really enjoy. Oh, and to whoever said the Go! Team cd was one of the best of the year. I'd have to agree now. I listened to it the first time, and I thought it was solid... not great. I didn't really think it would hold up over repeat listening. Then I decided to give it another go, and for some reason it just blew me away the second time, I love 90% of it. Something cheesy yet loveable about it. Maybe the Strokes new album will be the same way (though I doubt it, God that was a horrible 45 minutes.). |

Best Album of 2005 (to me): Face the Truth - Stephen Malkmus.
Easily. Honorable mention: Blinking Lights and Other Revelations - The Eels.

Dungen is pretty good. I am pretty sure it was released in 2005. Panda is a crazy song to trip to as well as most of the album. If only I could understand one damn word the bastards say.

Hip hop album of the year starts and ends with either "A Healthy Distrust" by Sage Francis or "You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having" by Atmosphere.
And neither called out the President on live TV to get people interested in them! |
