Best Music 2006 - Chris Jess

OK, OK, here I go:

Super long list of bestest music by Chris:

And yes, after a year of remodeling this is pretty much all the music I could come up with.

Best (and only) albums:

1. Dashboard Confessional - Dusk And Summer
Yes I know, it's the going-away fad of Screamo, but Chris Carrabba is actually pretty good (you know, it's all a question of taste...)
2. Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not
I actually first heard about these guys as part of a music video segment on a flight back from Germany. Fun album.

Most dissapointing album:
Snow Patrol - Eyes Open
Absolutely LOVED their first album. The single releases Hands Open & Chasing Cars were promising, but the album blew. Very slow & repetitive and just getting slower as the album progresses. The producer did a good job, as this album is clearly set up to convince those listening into the first 3-4 tracks in the store, but not the whole thing.

Due to the shortness of my list, here are two songs I'd like to mention:

1. Chris Cornell - You Know My Name (theme song from Casino Royale)
You go Chris! solid rock song but definatley a Bond song. It' nice to hear that after the whole Madonna let-down.
2. Bosse - Die Irritierten
I want this CD. Haven't been able to get it yet.

Chris =)
