lucero! yessss.
also, i believe you forgot big d & the kids table's 'fluent in stroll', which was a guhreat album.
(decided to repost, because nobody ever calls me 'amis'. haha.)
i believe you missed this one band that put out their first full length album early in the year (around march) and i was not able to go to the release party where they debuted my all time favorite cover which happens to be of one of my all time favorite songs, jon bon jovis' living on a prayer. i dont know maybe it is just me and my super-fan-ness.
Amanda: I really like the idea behind 'Fluent' (a sort of genre mish-mash), but I feel like they haven't quite honed in on the best parts of all the genres they're trying to absorb. The result is an album that is kind of boring and forgettable (I really do look forward to their next album, I think it will be a step-up).
Jake: Sorry man, not ringing any bells...
I bought 5 albums that came out in 2009, and 3 of them were made by friends. I liked them all....
