2009 is drawing towards its inevitable close and with that many have us have seen the ridiculous amounts of "Best of the Year" and "Best of the Decade" lists that not only clog the blogosphere, but that I very often allude to.
Entertainment Weekly,
Amazon, and many many other publications and Web sites have offered there take of the year and decade that was, and it's only a matter of days before I go off on my long-winded tangent of what I believe were the best
Songs, Albums and
Movies of the decade, along side my annual
Top 25 Songs of the Year countdown.
But before that day comes we have plenty of other lists to look at, examine and scrutinize. Today's came from
SPIN Magazine, a publication I often talked about early in the history of
Bears and Bullets but has since been mired in a little bit of obscurity like most magazines.
The list, while probably a bit out of order for most, has the majority if not all of the year's best albums in good spots, complete with indie faves, some popular acts and a couple of confusing picks that we'll just say belong on some list somewhere.
SPIN'S Best Albums of 2009 list available here.
Harlem premiered the first single from the Austin band's upcoming Matador debut (about the 300th time I've mentioned that this year) earlier today.
