| alright with the calendar moving into the heart of Q4 of 2009, i figured it's time to make some best of the year stuff. all mine are subject to change depending on the releases left this year and the more stuff i hear.
best album: It's great to be alive by fake problems runner up- dear friends and gentle hands by american steel honorable mentions- cobra skulls, the swellers and chuck ragan
best song: HeartBPM- fake problems runner up- Redness in The West- larry arms honorable mentions: the road- frank turner, sunday morning- the menzingers, heartless- fake problems
best ep: Buttsweat and tears by the Larry Arms runner up- hold on dodge by the menzingers, distractions by the loved ones
best "solo" album- gold country by chuck ragan disappointment of the year- Poetry of the Deed- Frank Turner (not as much it was bad, but i had high expectations after love, ire and song) best "non punk" album- Man on the Moon: end of days- kid cudi
anyways come up with your own categories or what not, i'll probably change mine around somemore. | |

| It's Great To Be Alive is no where NEAR the best album of the year, It's totally Dear Friends and Gentle Hearts, which is about the best album of the past FEW years
And it's a shame not to mention Broadway Calls new album at all, or Lucero. Lucero's new album is completely life affirming, although not the best this year | |

| see, i like lucero's new album, but i dont think its as good as that much further west and tenn.
i do feel my list is to friendly to fake problems, but everyone loves that album. it's kind of the 59' sound of this year. those boys are going to get big.
i've yet to listen to broadway calls at all, any starting point where i should start listening? | |

| Disappointment of the year is RX Bandits - Mandala. They lost a lot when the Chris Sheets (trombone) left the band and then never made up for it. Their sound on this one just isn't as fresh as it was on the last couple.
You named a 7'' of the year before Kudrow's was released. MISTAKE | |

88 Fingers Louie - Lives Against Me! - The Original Cowboy The Aggrolites - IV American Steel - Dear Friends and Gentle Hearts Andrew Jackson Jihad - Can't Maintain Austin Lucas - Somebody Loves You Banner Pilot - Collapser Bouncing Souls - 20th Anniversary Series Chuck Ragan - Daytrotter Session (It is just too good not to mention) Chuck Ragan - Gold Country Chuck Ragan - Live At Hafenkneipe Zürich The Lawrence Arms - Buttsweat and Tears Left Alone - Left Alone New Found Glory - Not Without A Fight NOFX - Coaster Spinnerette - Spinnerette Strike Anywhere - Iron Fist EP Strike Anywhere - Iron Front Tegan and Sara - Sainthood Time Again - (Naked) Chuck Ragan/Brian Fallon - Gospel Songs Kepi Ghoulie/Vic Ruggiero - The New Dark Ages Various Artists - Let Them Know: The Story Of Youth Brigade And BYO Records Westbound Train - Come And Get It
As for dissapointments, I have just two: Rancid - Let the dominoes fall and Dead To Me - African Elephants. | |

so it makes me wunder if any of the rumors that Tim had a lot to do with writing Distillers music were true. who knows I disagree. Coral Fang was good and it was different from their earlier albums, but that could be attributed to member changes, as well as the fact that people and their music change over time. Besides it wasn't drastically different. That said the Spinnerette album is shitty. Also this: - laurendelore wrote:

| Album of the year for me probably has to be Crazy Arms 'Born To Ruin'
Not a bad track on it.
Heart BPM i probably agree with the track of the year, or it's at least a good contender | |
