Posted By: BillS January 29, 2011


cover of Mi Ami : Steal Your Face  Buy New or Used via amazon
1. Mi Ami : Steal Your Face ( bought this unknowing of the band strictly on cover art. quickly became my favorite grating noisy annoying masterpiece. previous members were “Black Dice” also very good.)



cover of Wooden Shjips : Vol. 2  Buy New or Used via amazon
2. Wooden Shjips : Vol. 2 (saw them ATP and was enthralled with their trancey Krautrock even though they’re American.)



cover of John Zorn : Interzone  Buy New or Used via amazon
3. John Zorn : Interzone (one of many Zorn releases this year, this one is all over the map.)



cover of The Sadies : Darker Circles  Buy New or Used via amazon
4. The Sadies : Darker Circles (one of the hardest working Canadian surf/punk/western rockers out there)



cover of Robert Wyatt : For The Ghosts Within  Buy New or Used via amazon
5. Robert Wyatt : For The Ghosts Within (beautiful reworking of classic tracks and new stuff)
(also loved Orchestre National De Jazz: Around Robt. Wyatt)



cover of Grinderman - Grinderman II  Buy New or Used via amazon
6. Grinderman – Grinderman II (feral testosterone driven mania)



cover of Boredoms - 77 Boadrum  Buy New or Used via amazon
7. Boredoms – 77 Boadrum (originally performed at 07/ 07/07 in Brooklyn with 77 drummers is amazing in its scope)



cover of Madlib Medicine Show: #4 420 Chalice All Stars  Buy New or Used via amazon
8. Madlib Medicine Show: #4 420 Chalice All Stars (prolific Madlib does a fantastic job of mixing/ mashing classic reggae tracks)



cover of Joanna Newsome: Have One On Me  Buy New or Used via amazon
9. Joanna Newsome: Have One On Me ( does the impossible of putting out 3 discs of engaging songs)



cover of Neil Young : Le Noise  Buy New or Used via amazon
10. Neil Young : Le Noise ( a poop perennial finally makes good after a few bad years)



11. Jeb Loy Nichols: Long Time Traveller (not sure if this counts as 2010 release, got it as a Japanese import, but if not, count Only Time Will Tell with Ian Gomm )
12. Michael Hurley: Blue Hills ( American treasure comes up with a vinyl only release that suits the harmonium to him well)
13. Brian Eno: Small Craft On A Milk Sea ( seems that Warp Records suits him well)
14. Daniel Higgs: Say God ( I’m not a believer, but Daniel comes close to convincing)
15. Nels Cline: Dirty Baby ( a concept album that works)
16. Nels Cline Singers: Initiate ( out there jazz/rock with fantastic cover art of the Hadron Collider)
17. Little Axe: Bought For A Dollar, Sold For A Dime ( Skip gets all bluesy, also great cover art)
18. Ryan Adams & the Cardinals: III/IV ( outakes from previous sessions, but upstanding good stuff)
19. Cee Lo Green: The Lady Killer ( fantastic soul release, with the would be killer summer anthem “Fuck You”, but he released it too late)
