OK, not really a list as I don't do those anymore, but here's a small selection of randomly ordered albums from this year that I realkly like for various moods. And yes, these picks change almost daily.

When I wanna rock the fck out...

OFF!: The First Four EPs
Keith Morris and a guy from Red Kross and some new kids blow the joint apart with hardcore blasts straight outta 1981. This thing just smokes.
Honorable mentions to Davilla666: Tan Bajo, Hunx and His Punx: Too Young to Be in Love, & The Misfits: Devil's Rain (mostly just for the song Where Do They Go)

When I wanna chill the fck out...(electronic category)

Nicolas Jaar: Space is Only Noise
Most of you have listened to this for sure if you're interested in this sort of laid back dance-music influenced electronica. Headphone listening highly recommended, sounds ping all over the place with this one, almost seems designed with headphones in mind. This is one of those records I fully expect to still be listening to years from now.
Honorable mentions to Ken Seeno: Invisible Surfer on an Invisible Wave, Jürgen Müller: Science of the Sea & Pulse Emitter:Spiritual Vistas.

When I wanna chill the fck out...(acoustic category)

J. Masics: Several Shades of Why
Really nice intimate acoustic album from the Dinosaur Jr. frontman. I was never really much into that group, but this album has grabbed me enough that I've since delved back into their catalog...and I still like this as a whole better than anything they did.
Honorable mention to Middle Brother:S/T, Exene Cervenka:The Excitement of Maybe & Beach Fossils: What A Pleasure.

When I wanna hear something somewhere in-between...

Washed Out: Within and Without
I guess this is more Chillwave, but this album has a great pop sensibility and excellent propulsion throughout. A really cohesive listen from start to finish without getting boring or feeling too monotonous.
Honorable mentions to Fujiya and Miyagi: Ventriloquizzing, The Cults: S/T & The Dirtbombs: Party Store

When I wanna hear some droning oddball stuff...

Zomes: Earth Grid
Drones and tape loops. Not a ton of variety here, but the whole thing holds together and the individual songs keep my attention. The pacing is quicker and the loops more rhythmic than a lot of this sort of thing and I think that's probably what hooks me.
Honorable mentions to: Prurient: Time's Arrow, Willamette: Echo Park, & Mountains: Air Museum

When I wanna hear some soul music...

Charles Bradley: No Time for Dreaming
I still think this one really has one mega-track that carries the rest of the album. Thena gain when it is a song as good as The World (Is Going Up in Flames), that can be just fine.
Honorable mentions to Jill Scott: The Light of the Sun &Raphael Saadiq: Stone Rollin.

Other people who made stuff I liked a lot this year: Mind Spiders, Teenage Panzerkorps, The Kills, Barn Owl, Panabrite, Roy Ellis, Anthony Hamilton, Skybombers, Teen Daze, Girls, Run DMT, Sean McCann, Grouper, Balam Acab and several more I am forgetting.

Song of the year even though I'm not so big on the rest of the album.... Post Break Up Sex by the Vaccines.
