Harvey Wallbanger Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Say, hypothetically, that you had a friend who had been living under a rock for the last 12 months, and that this person had not heard any new music in that time. Now say they get a wifi connection under said rock. What are the top 5 albums from 2007 that you would recommend that they go (legally) download? And remember, no links! (In no particular order) White Stripes -- Icky Thump Baby Elephant -- Turn My Teeth Up Beastie Boys -- The Mix-Up Of Montreal -- The Sunlandic Twins Battles -- Mirrored Bonus: Death Proof Soundtrack Superbad Soundtrack Steve Martin's autobiography "Born Standing Up" on audiobook I may be forgetting some gems from this year, but that's almost all of the music from 2007 that is currently on my hard drive.

earl broclo ESQ Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 i wasn't feeling their last album, but this one restored some faith. this album is just funky as all fucking hell. technically, this came out in 2006, but i didn't hear it until 2007: i thought this album was slept on: i haven't heard this album yet, but i love her work so i'll throw it in assuming it's good: my bonus picks: these next two came out in 2006, but didn't hear them until 2007: sorry about the 2006 material. i worked in a music store until a couple months back, everything just bleeds together.
