I've been hearing lots about albums of the decade, so I decided to make a list of my own. I won't rank them because I don't care that much, but I'm going to highlight some of my favorite albums in the next few posts. Also, if this makes me a douche, I'm okay with that.

















Rilo Kiley - More Adventurous

I remember hearing Rilo Kiley for the first time in high school. My best friend Shana bought one of their cds and we were listening to it on the way back from Vermont. I told her it sounded a lot like music that would be played in a movie where the main character drives off into the sunset. That feeling still holds true.
















The Hidden Cameras - The Smell of Our Own

I hadn't heard of The Hidden Cameras until 2007, when Sean introduced me to them with their single, Death of a Tune. I like to sing to their music in my car when I'm driving long distances. They're really amazing, even if a piece of paper makes the lead singer turn into a diva.















Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton - Knives Don't Have Your Back

Emily Haines is really great in Metric, but she's much better alone. The only thing to be said about this album is that it's beautifully depressing. Total gut-punch.















Mika Miko -C.Y.S.L.A.B.F.

R.I.P. Mika Miko. Nevar forget. What I really love about Mika Miko is that they're fun. They're just plain fun. They don't (or didn't) seem to take themselves too seriously. This album has been my studio album since I first got my hands on it, which was a long time after it came out. Regardless, it's a quick listen that I keep on repeat.

The Hidden Cameras were good. After they were done, I had my friend take their set list. It turned out it wasn't their set list and Joel Gibb came up to me and asked for it back, said that it was his piece of paper and I should've asked first. Oops. Then he gave me a real set list and we left. I win.

First day of November and it was almost 80. Texas is weird.

I was a pair of scissors for Halloween.
