Best Music 2004 - Mark Morris

Best of 2004

Joanna Newsom - The Milk Eyes Mender - sounds like she an 8 year old Bjork playing a Harp.

The Rapture - Echoes - bring on that Proto Punk Funk

Liars - They were Wrong so we Drowned - If Edgar Allen Poe were a hipster from Brooklyn he might have sounded like these dudes.

Iron & Wine - Our Endless Numbered Days - best sounding folk album I never bothered to buy

Eliot Smith - From a basement on the Hill - Sad Sad Album

Modest Mouse - Good News for Bad People who love Bad News - If Nic Harcourt says this is a top album of 2004 then he must be right...

The Shin - Chutes too Narrow - It came out in 2003 but I didn't buy it until 2004 so I'm including it, suck it.

The Von Bondies - Pawn Shoppe Heart - Has the best intro song for a TV show ever (Rescue Me)

Yves Montand - D'or - makes me want to wear a Beret.

Blonde RedHead - Misery is a Butterfly - just because, suck it.

The Catheters - Iggy lives!!! Wait he never died.

Mclusky - Hard to go wrong with a Steve Albini produced band... or actually it might be pretty easy to go wrong.
