It's hard for me to come up with 10 let alone 11. That's sad. This list is sad.
1. Brand New - Daisy 2. Polar Bear Club - Chasing Hamburg 3. Propagandhi - Supporting Caste 4. Fun. - Aim and Ignite 5. Every Time I Die - The New Junk Aesthetic 6. Kevin Devine - Brother's Blood 7. Moneen -The World I Want To Leave Behind 8. The Swellers - Ups and Downsizing 9. New Found Glory - Not Without A Fight 10. Fireworks - All I Have To Offer Is My Own Confusion 11. Paramore - Brand New Eyes
2009 also saw three bands I used to love put out some of their worst records: As Tall As Lions, Set Your Goals, and Portugal. The Man. Sucks. I was really looking forward to ATAL and SYG and was just completely let down.

There were a bunch of albums that came out this year that I never got around to listening to. 1. Manchester Orchestra - Mean Everything to Nothing 2. fun - Aim and Ignite 3. Mono - Hymn to the Immortal Wind 4. Say Hi - Oohs and Aahs 5. Silversun Pickups - Swoon 6. Death Cab for Cutie - The Open Door EP 7. Phoenix - Wolfgand Amadeus Phoenix 8. Bon Iver - Blood Bank EP 9. Caspian - Tertia 10. As Tall as Lions - You Can't Take it With You 11. Tegan & Sara - Sainthood Not a great year, but not a terrible year. ATAL isn't awful. It's my least favorite album by them, but it's still really great. There's a ton of stuff like Riceboy Sleeps and Imogen Heap and Kings of Convenience and One Fast Move Or I'm Gone that have been really great so far, but I haven't really given enough listens to.
