So, I was talking with my brother Tony about the albums each of us had enjoyed most so far this year. I would say that our taste is fairly similar, but with so much music out there, it's only natural that our top picks through the end of June differ a tad bit. He's wasn't particularly indignant or confused by my picks, but being the verbal combatant that he is, he quickly explained to me over the phone why his were truly justified...
Vampire Weekend, Contra; Key tracks - "Horchata," "Giving up the Gun," "I Think Ur a Contra"
Yeasayer, Odd Blood; Key Tracks - "Mondegreen," "Rome," "Madder Red"
Frightened Rabbit, The Winter of Mixed Drinks; Key Tracks - "The Wrestle," "Living in Colour," "Nothing Like You"
The Tallest Man on Earth, The Wild Hunt; Key Tracks - "The Wild Hunt," "Kids on the Run," "Kids on the Run"
Tokyo Police Club, Champion; Key Tracks - "Favourite Food," "Bambi," "Not Sick"
The National, High Violet; Key Tracks - "Terrible Love," "Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks,"
