and such this weekender was starting to actually suck another man's suckable in the form of starting my year end list. its not done, cuz baby, tender forever comes out tuesday and jens lekman eludes me presently. so after that its almost close to being set. i listened to 150 plus albums this year, narrowed things to around 66, cuz thats a soul and funk number. i also witnessed dane cook selling out the word bragadocious this weekend, so i can't use it now. speaking of selling and ends, what happened to we are scientists back catalog? remember how i listened to 'the creeper' all the time... well apparantly its in archeology now, i'm saying if you go to the We Are Scientists website and under discography theres no "safety, fun, and learning (in that order)", mack! oh major labelings what a hoot half. Uh, I was talking about year end lists, 66 albums, 66 songs, skewer out 16 on each cuz fifty looks nice. I do albums cuz everyone does albums, and songs because its actually really fun for me to do songs. its shallow and pretensious but i sorta am thatise. anyway instead of whats next, heres what I narrowed out of the list in a no particular fashion bash (the artists whose albums i liked this year but not enough) (gawd caleb, hang it up):

voxtrot, lightening bolt, okkervil river, roisin murphy, tom vek, jaime lidell, ida, tiger bear wolf, great lake swimmers, edan, jane, ravonettes, final fantasy, blackalicious, half handed cloud, clor, light footwork, 31 knots, colleen, piano magic, concretes, lemon jelly, the rosebuds, six organs of admittance, most serene republic, common, sigur ros, devendra banhart, danger doom, troubled hubble, hood, low, electrelane. and its pretty much stupid for mentioning this cuz it makes me look like name droppurd, but thats what lists basically are anyway. its more to chronical my own toughness. i mean if i actually cared what people thupped me as, i wouldn't even have the time to make a list now, idea. so next time at least one list and some aches. in the front.
