My Favorite Music of 2005

Hey, I haven't posted here in a while, so I thought that I would put up my favorite albums of 2005 for PDXBANDS fans to peruse. Here we go:

No. 1: Come on, Feel The Illinoise by Sufjan Stevens
"I fell in love with the place"

Tanglewood Numbers by The Silver Jews
"I loved ya to the max"

No Flashlight by Mt. Eerie
"Your love swells and pounds me"

Caracas by The Watery Graves
"Obviously there's no words on this but the whole album is filled with love anyhow."

Thanksgiving by Thanksgiving
"mostly it is entirely about love. love, adrian"

Carousel Waltz by The Robot Ate Me
"There is just one girl I love"

The Campfire Headphase by Boards of Canada
"I love you" (that lyric is from 1998's "Music Has The Right To Children")

Cathedral by Castanets
"I try to tell you I love you"

The Great Destroyer by Low
"Nothing to steal we've got nothing to love"

If You Were Born Overseas by Norfolk & Western
(got to listen to the album again and see if there is a lyric about "love" on there somewhere)

Gimme Fiction by Spoon
"I summon my love back to me"

All Kelp Monthlies by Karl Blau

Giraffes and Jackals 10" by Bobby Birdman


Superwolf by Matt Sweeney and Bonnie Prince Billy
Comments:
this is the best "best of 2005" i've ever seen. great albums-especially mt. eerie and thanksgiving. also, "the great destroyer" is one of the most severly underrated albums (isn't it sad about zak sally quiting the band?!?) can't wait for the new karl blau too. right on
 
spoon. holy shit, spoon. that's a really great album.
