Good albums so far in 2005?

MrTTTT · 30th June 2005, 21:44

I was just wondering what your opinions were on this. So far i've been particularly impressed with 3 albums

System of a Down - Mesmerize
Thievery Corporation - The Cosmic Game
Beck - Guero

what's everyone elses picks so far this year?

ilk · 30th June 2005, 21:54

Mars Volta - Frances the Mute
QOTSA - Lullabies to Paralyze

Enjoyed With Teeth but it's probably not album of the year material.

I think that's all I've got that was actually released this year.

ala* · 30th June 2005, 22:21

cant think of anything really great.... so ill say....

jamiroquai - dynamite

wasn't awesome, but theyve progressed a bit.

Doh I just clicked to what you're 'knew it' was about... Yes I flat with Scumbag, and since my computer stopped working in a small cloud of smoke I've been using his machine (as I finish work at 2pm). I must have not logged him out before posting my comment.

No we are not the same person :-)
