    If I had to make a top 10 for the year right now:

    1. Steve Moakler - Steel Town
    2. Natalie Hemby - Puxico
    3. Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness - Zombies on Broadway
    4. John Moreland - Big Bad Luv
    5. The Menzingers - After the Party
    6. Ryan Adams - Prisoner
    7. Japandroids - Near to the Wild Heart of Life
    8. Sunny Sweeney - Trophy
    9. Lauren Alaina - Road Less Traveled
    10. Charlie Worsham - The Beginning of Things

    Moreland and Worsham aren't out yet though, so I'm cheating I guess.

  3. Biggest disappointment for me Q1 is Spoon. Thought it was okay not great, but need to listen more. They Want My Soul was my favorite of theirs and is probably top 10-15 of the decade for me so I was expecting a lot.

    Totally agree. Pretty boring album. I actually love the title track but the album does nothing for me after that.

    bring on the major leagues

    Jay Som - Everybody Works hit me hard enough that I'd be really surprised (and thrilled) if it doesn't end up my year end #1
