Okay, it's after Thanksgiving now, so we can start talking about year-end lists, right?

I have not been the voracious seeker of new music that I once was, but I probably checked out a little more this year than I did last year, largely due to my return to this board. The '07 releases that have gotten the most play in my little basement apartment have been Nina Nastasia & Jim White - You Follow Me, Electrelane, Ted Leo, Jens Lekman, Talib Kweli, Vampire Hands, Gay Beast, Shellac, Dinosaur Jr, Loudon & Joe Henry's Knocked Up soundtrack... I'm sure there have been others that are escaping me.

Never checked out The National or Okkervil River, although I meant to. Also that new Blonde Redhead.

A few titles seemed to be consistently coming up on another board... anyone here heard any of these?

- Oxbow - The Narcotic Story
- Pissed Jeans - Hope For Men
- Clockcleaner - Babylon Rules
- Panda Bear - Person Pitch

I still have some time to catch up on whatever I missed. Looking forward to the new Skoal Kodiak LP but besides that I will probably buy a few more records this year, so suggest away!
