Tricks Of The Trade: The Wonder Stuff
The Pot: Tool
Unemployable: Pearl Jam
Witchcraft: Wolfmother
1,000 Seconds: The Secret Machines

These are all on my 2000-2006 playlist, pure awesome:

Athlete - Forest Fire

People in Planes - Falling by the Wayside
Red Hot Chili Peppers - If
Richard Butler - Maybe Someday
Rock Kills Kid - Hide Away
Snow Patrol - You Could Be Happy
The Strokes - You Only Live Once
 
Yeah I'll need some time too but the ones that sprang to mind immediately were:

Pearl Jam - 'Unemployable'
AFI - 'Love Like Winter'
James Dean Bradfield - 'That's No Way To Tell A Lie'
 
Favorites of 2006, eh

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Gold Lion
Thom Yorke - Black Swan
Sufjan Stevens - Pittsfield
Snow Patrol - Open Your Eyes
Sigur Ros - Hafsol - from the Sæglópur EP
Secret Machines - 1000 Seconds :drool: :drool:

Keane - Is It Any Wonder
Gnarls Barkley - Just A Thought
The Flaming Lips - Free Radicals
Jenny Lewis - The Charging Sky
KT Tunstall - Other Side Of The World
Muse - Supermassive Black Hole

I guess that's about it right there. Obviously there are some great tracks I passed up, but judging from this list, I think the year is going pretty well.
 
off the top of my head:

radiohead - videotape, all i need
thom yorke - the eraser, analyse
sufjan - chicago acoustic
the diableros - olympic island
the most serene republic - stay ups
band of horses - funeral
amy millan - skinny boy
sia - breathe me (i'm still trying to decide whether i like the ulrich schnauss remix better than the original)
 
Hmm ...

Anathema - Everything
Blackfield - Once
Communic - Under A Luminous Sky
The Devin Townsend Band - Notes From Africa
OSI - Sure You Will and Free
Pure Reason Revolution - Goshens Remains and The Twyncyn/Trembling Willows
Venturia - The New Kingdom
Wolverine - A House Of Plague, Hiding, and And She Slowly Dies

Not that good a year yet, but I have my hopes, especially as some good releases are coming. Most notably Blackfield's second album. :drool:
 
good year so far

in not much of an order:
Aphex Twin - Reunion
Stuart A. Staples - There is a path
Destroyer - Watercolours into the ocean
Pet Shop Boys - Minimal
Ghostface Killah - Kilo (feat. Raekwon)
Howe Gelb - Neon Filler
Tom Zé - Elaeu
Muse - Knights of Cydonia
Rosanne Cash - Dreams are not my home
Neko Case - Margaret vs. Pauline
Johan - Any other guy
Sonic Youth - Pink steam

Why is everyone excluding Daniel Powter from their Best of '06 lists??
  • You had a bad day
    The camera don't lie
    You're coming back down and you really don't mind
    You had a bad daaaaaay
:heart:
 
Here in Australia we (or I) don't get exposed to a lot of good music. The charts are absolute SHIT dominated by crappy Idols who can't sing, tryhard rappers who can't make it in America and idiots who fart into a microphone, give it a beat and get a number one song.

Save for:

RHCP - Dani California
Snow Patrol (I think?) had a good song but I can't remember the name of it.
And some Eskimo Joe song.
