(Now with brief reviews!)

JANUARY
001. Mogwai || Hardcore Will Never Die, But You WIll (I keep buying Mogwai records, and while on paper I should worship this band, I am always left with that 'Meh' type feeling.)
002. Earth || Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light: 1 (A good instrumental based record should make you not miss the vocals. I am a vocals fan for the most part, but can see myself wanting to hear this again and again, unlike Mogwai; see above)
003. Social Distortion || Hard Times & Nursery Rhymes (Smiths vs. Cure = Cure. Social Distortion vs. Bad Religion = Bad Religion.)
004. Codes in the Clouds || As The Spirit Wanes (Boring post-rock)
005. Esben & the Witch || Violet Cries (I enjoyed the first few songs, then it started getting annoying and repetitive)
006. Waylon Thornton || Sixteen Dreams (good, but a little to lo-fi and raw for my liking)
007. Christian Bland & the Revelators || The Lost Album (King Khan / Mark Sultan type project - minus the 'Meth' and frantic energy. Not bad)
008. Chevelle || Any Last Words LIVE (Love this band! Love having a document of the recent tour)
009. Battlelore || Doombound (got about 5 songs in before I decided this was probably the only time I'd play this.)
010. Cage the Elephant || Thank You, Happy Birthday (1st record bored me. This one is thrilling me so far!)
011. The Murder & the Harlot || These Hands Wrote the Bastard in Me (metal-core. not bad. not really memorable either)
012. Times of Grace || Hymn of a Broken Man (I was never a KSE fan, but this is tremendous and a possible #1 contender!)
013. Wanda Jackson || Wanda Jackson (d/l'ed cause of the Jack White connection. Not my thing. Not bad, but not my thing)
014. Penquins Kill Polar Bears || Dawn (ep) (singer sounds like the guy from Soulcracker. blah.)
015. The Babies || The Babies (eh. for some reason, I was expecting a lot more....)
016. Black Pistol Fire || Black Pistol Fire (garage rock. it be alright, but doubt I'll get the urge to play it again. cool name.)
017. We Made God || It's Getting Colder (like Devil Sold His Soul in 2010, amazing classical meets black metal meets shoegaze))
018. White Lies || Ritual (1988 Dov would worship this record. 2011 Dov is amused by it. A Keeper. A poppier Sisters of Mercy?)
BEST RELEASES OF JANUARY: Times of Grace & We Made God

FEBRUARY
019. Twilight Singers || Dynamite Steps (Much better than Powder Burns although production still leaves lot to be desired. Love it)
020. Lifelovers || Sjukdom (on paper, I like this bad. In reality, not as much...)
021. Puro Instinct || Headbangers in Ecstasy (interesting, but a one time listen only)
022. Kid Icarus || Ghost Town Feelings (ehh. reminded me of a less gloomy Horrors.)
023. The Islands & the Sea || ...Are Dead (and so is their chance of being a top 20 contender. nah!)
024. Ghost || Opus Epynomous (Released in 2010, but US release was this year. grows on me with every listen. love it)
025. Architects UK || Here & Now (Love it. To 10 Material. Believe the hype)
026. Ascension || Consolamentum (It's alright. Music is good. Not liking the vocals.)
027. Destroy Rebuild Until God Saves || DRUGS (no.)
028. Grails || Deep Politics (not to pile on Mogwai, but this is memorable instrumental post rock. key word - memorable. Like this lots)
029. Jack the Giant Killer || Drowning King (no.)
030. Radiohead || The King of Limbs (underwhelmed after one listen. Codex is a pretty song though. Not liking the direction.)
031. Deafheaven || Roads to Judah (Top 5 easily for 2011! for fans of So Hideous My Love. heh heh)
BEST RELEASES OF FEBRUARY: Grails, Architects UK, Twilight Singers, Deafheaven

MARCH
032. Rival Schools || Pedals (Like it more and more with each listen. a year end contender!)
033. The Human Abstract || Digital Veils (Musically great, but can't get into the death metal vocals)
034. Vivian Girls || Share the Joy (not bad, but not really memorable either.)
035. Long Distance Calling || Long Distance Calling (loved their first record. this one aint doing it for me)
036. TrustCompany || Dreaming in Black & White (Monster single off their 1st record. Crap ever since. Sorry.)
037. Fen || Epoch (wonderful!)
038. The Color Morale || My Devil in Your Eyes (nope.)
039. Witchcraft || Ash
040. Funeral for a Friend || Welcome Home Armegeddon (kind of liked them back in the day, but not anymore)
041. Those Dancing Days || Daydreams & NIghtmares (nope)
042. Billy Joel || Live @ Shea Stadium 2010 (fun fun fun)
043. And the Furies Say || And the Furies Say (and the dov says....nah)
044. Know Hope Collective || Know Hope Collective (boring radio rock)
045. Rise Against || Endgame
046. Whitesnake || Forevermore (tremendous. going back to their blues hard rock days of the early 80's)
047. The Kills || Blood Pressures
048. The Raveonettes || Raven in the Grave (was scared to play this after their last record was my #1 of 09. Different but great!)
049. This Will Destroy You || Tunnel Blanket (some great moments. vocals are too buried. eh...)

APRIL
050. Thursday || No Devolucion

054. Dredg || Chuckles & Mr. Squeezy
055. Ten After Two || Truth Is.... (truth is...i won't be playing this again anytime soon)

Totally looking forward to the new Wanda Jackson: The Party Ain't Over. I just pre-ordered on vinyl from Third Man. Considering grabbing the reissue of White Blood Cells as well since it's the one White Stripes I want on vinyl and don't yet have. Sounds like they've worked hard to make 'em all sound good, but I've not heard one or talked to anyone that has. Any y'all know anything on that, let me know.

Twilightkid Wrote:
(Now with brief reviews!)

JANUARY
001. Mogwai || Hardcore Will Never Die, But You WIll (I keep buying Mogwai records, and while on paper I should worship this band, I am always left with that 'Meh' type feeling.)
002. Earth || Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light: 1 (A good instrumental based record should make you not miss the vocals. I am a vocals fan for the most part, but can see myself wanting to hear this again and again, unlike Mogwai; see above)
003. Social Distortion || Hard Times & Nursery Rhymes (Smiths vs. Cure = Cure. Social Distortion vs. Bad Religion = Bad Religion.)
004. Codes in the Clouds || As The Spirit Wanes (Boring post-rock)
005. Esben & the Witch || Violet Cries (I enjoyed the first few songs, then it started getting annoying and repetitive)
006. Waylon Thornton || Sixteen Dreams (good, but a little to lo-fi and raw for my liking)
007. Christian Bland & the Revelators || The Lost Album (King Khan / Mark Sultan type project - minus the 'Meth' and frantic energy. Not bad)
008. Chevelle || Any Last Words LIVE (Love this band! Love having a document of the recent tour)
009. Battlelore || Doombound (got about 5 songs in before I decided this was probably the only time I'd play this.)
010. Cage the Elephant || Thank You, Happy Birthday (1st record bored me. This one is thrilling me so far!)
011. The Murder & the Harlot || These Hands Wrote the Bastard in Me (metal-core. not bad. not really memorable either)
012. Times of Grace || Hymn of a Broken Man (I was never a KSE fan, but this is tremendous and a possible #1 contender!)
013. Wanda Jackson || Wanda Jackson (d/l'ed cause of the Jack White connection. Not my thing. Not bad, but not my thing)
014. Penquins Kill Polar Bears || Dawn (ep) (singer sounds like the guy from Soulcracker. blah.)
015. The Babies || The Babies (eh. for some reason, I was expecting a lot more....)
016. Black Pistol Fire || Black Pistol Fire (garage rock. it be alright, but doubt I'll get the urge to play it again. cool name.)
017. We Made God || It's Getting Colder (like Devil Sold His Soul in 2010, amazing classical meets black metal meets shoegaze))
018. White Lies || Ritual (1988 Dov would worship this record. 2011 Dov is amused by it. A Keeper. A poppier Sisters of Mercy?)
BEST RELEASES OF JANUARY: Times of Grace & We Made God

FEBRUARY
019. Twilight Singers || Dynamite Steps (Much better than Powder Burns although production still leaves lot to be desired. Love it)
020. Lifelovers || Sjukdom
021. Puro Instinct || Headbangers in Ecstasy (interesting, but a one time listen only)
022. Kid Icarus || Ghost Town Feelings (ehh. reminded me of a less gloomy Horrors.)
023. The Islands & the Sea || ...Are Dead (and so is their chance of being a top 20 contender. nah!)
024. Ghost || Opus Epynomous (Released in 2010, but US release was this year. grows on me with every listen. love it)
025. Architects UK || Here & Now (Love it. To 10 Material. Believe the hype)
026. Ascension || Consolamentum (It's alright. Music is good. Not liking the vocals.)
027. Destroy Rebuild Until God Saves || DRUGS (no.)
028. Grails || Deep Politics (not to pile on Mogwai, but this is memorable instrumental post rock. key word - memorable. Like this lots)
029. Jack the Giant Killer || Drowning King (no.)
030. Radiohead || The King of Limbs (underwhelmed after one listen. Codex is a pretty song though. Not liking the direction.)
031. Deafheaven || Roads to Judah (Top 5 easily for 2011! for fans of So Hideous My Love. heh heh)
BEST RELEASES OF FEBRUARY: Grails, Architects UK, Twilight Singers, Deafheaven

MARCH
032. Rival Schools || Pedals
033. The Human Abstract || Digital Veils (Musically great, but can't get into the death metal vocals)
034. Vivian Girls || Share the Joy
035. Long Distance Calling || Long Distance Calling (loved their first record. this one aint doing it for me)
036. TrustCompany || Dreaming in Black & White (Monster single off their 1st record. Crap ever since. Sorry.)
037. Fen || Epoch (wonderful!)
038. The Color Morale || My Devil in Your Eyes (nope.)
039. Witchcraft || Ash
040. Funeral for a Friend || Welcome Home Armegeddon (kind of liked them back in the day, but not anymore)
041. Those Dancing Days || Daydreams & NIghtmares (nope)
042. Billy Joel || Live @ Shea Stadium 2010 (fun fun fun)
043. And the Furies Say || And the Furies Say (and the dov says....nah)
044. Know Hope Collective || Know Hope Collective (boring radio rock)
045. Rise Against || Endgame
046. Whitesnake || Forevermore (tremendous. going back to their blues hard rock days of the early 80's)
047. The Kills || Blood Pressures
048. The Raveonettes || Raven in the Grave
049. This Will Destroy You || Tunnel Blanket (some great moments. vocals are too buried. eh...)
BEST RELEASES OF MARCH: Fen, Rise Against, Whitesnake

APRIL
050. Thursday || No Devolucion
051. David Bowie | Toy
