What was your favorite album this year, it doesn't have to be an album from this year, it can be and old one but you discovered it this year, in my case i liked very few albums from 2010, but i heard a lot of great ones from previous years, however my favorite by far was this:

angizia

It's a really old album from 1997, anyway, what do you say guys, what was your favorite from this year, the one you couldn't stop listen all the year.

Angizia

Sigh No More by Mumford and Sons

I actually got the 3 disc version with their live show and a documentary following the band. I just wish i hadn't just missed them playing live in October :(

The Fool by Warpaint. Never listened to them before and it's pretty sweet post-punk, dream poppish music

Violet - The Birthday Massacre.

Also that Telephantasm by Soundgarden, not really an album but more of a collection.

I really liked Big Boi's album, Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty and Bruce Springsteen's The Promise. There was a ton of good stuff this year - Eminem, The Roots, Kanye, B.o.B, and Kid Cudi.

Yes, this EP was very good. However, his full length, the Age of Adz, I'm not sure I like so much. I like Sufjan with a chamber orchestra and acoustic guitar, not a bunch of bleeps and bloops.

I honestly cannot pick one favourite album of the year at the moment, I found that 2010 was excellent for releases, and I discovered quite a few older albums which I am now in love with

I'm not fond of Age of Adz at all. ADPEP is still a different direction from Sufjan's normal work but still "feels" like his music. Age of Adz is just out of place. I think that should have been the EP and All Delighted People should have been the full length

It's one of their better albums imo, but I've seen a few people who haven't particularly enjoyed it. But these are the same people that don't like the couple albums before them, Night at the Opera and A Twist in the Myth.

This man knows what's up.

Close second would be the Tron Legacy Soundtrack by Daft Punk.

Engrish_Major

You know, you and I have very similar taste in music. I loved Penny Sparkle, I seen them last month on tour, really amazing show. Black Guitar has easily become one of my favorite Blonde Redhead songs.

My favorite album this year was probably, "Beach House- Teen Dream"

Nothing better than space pop and space rock done right.

I'd second that. Definitely their best album since Nightfall, although I did enjoy A Night at the Opera and A Twist in the Myth as well.
