Mew - ...And The Glass Handed Kites

Simply because its awesome.

Runnerups are Porcupine Tree - Deadwing and Napalm Death - The Code Is Red, Long Live The Code

Jamie Lidell - Multiply

[SLjimbo]

Demons & Wizards - Touched By The Crimson King

That's what I'm doing. Until recently, I've had a difficult time keeping up on music. Also:

[Rez]

i'm not being sarcstic. seriously. unless you're butt-stubborn about YOUR stuff there's no way you cant at least like the damn record.

[Emu]

[Krythor]

It's OKAY. Maybe it is the best of 2005, I really haven't heard enough new music to disagree; but I found more than one moment on that album annoying. The Cure plagiarism on track 3 never fails to anger me.
