Top fives

January 8, 2008 | 1 Comment

2008 has come upon us and I never bothered to get around to creating my own “best of”s to add to the ubiquitous 2007 year-end lists. I thought at least I could assemble a list of my top five favorite songs. I can only come up with a few songs that I listened to obsessively during the year, so I guess they will do. Not all came out in 2007, of course.

Husker Du – Diane (from 1983!)
Kings of Leon – Knocked Up
LCD Soundsystem – Someone Great
Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Down Boy (oh hell, their whole EP was great)
The Gossip – Standing in the Way of Control

I also liked:
Against Me! – Thrash Unreal
Cold War Kids – Hang Me Up to Dry

Hm, I guess I’m still rock ‘n roll after all.

    rock n’ fuckin roll….

    1983….hmmm….what were you doing when that came out? I was just transitioning from listening to metal to the punk influence of my sister. Funny, both me and my best friend (since 3rd grade) got our punk/indie music introductions from our sisters

    happy new year..for you:
