First I want to say that this was one of the hardest top lists I have ever done. Some of these don't deserve to be ranked any lower than the ones above them. While I didn't write as prolifically this year as I did others what I wrote about I really and truly loved. And then the other folks 'round these parts wrote about good stuff too. But the end of the year breeds top lists so I have been struggling for the past couple of weeks to actually rank these albums. I honestly will be doing some of these [...]
" Holy fucking shit " was my first thought after giving Prison Book Club's second album a good and thorough first listen.

The perfect soundtrack for my failure of a Tuesday is this little number from Tucker Riggleman and Adam Meisterhans of The Demon Beat , John Miller from The Fox Hunt and drummer Jeff Birdsall. The thing is, you see, today has sucked a whole bunch and this whiskey drenched bunch of twangy tunes has been playing in the background and keeping me sane for most of the afternoon. While I was not getting the cool microscope set on Kids.Woot before it sold out PBC was crooning "Look out tonight 'cause my heart ain't feelin' right. [...]
