2011 Year In Music

My favorite albums for the year 2011 are:

    1. Decemberists The King Is Dead

    2. Ryan Adams Ashes & Fire

    3. Wilco The Whole Love

    4. Beastie Boys Hot Sauce Committee Part 2

    5. Fleet Foxes Helplessness Blues

    6. Tom Waits As Bad As Me

    7. Radiohead King Of Limbs

    8. The Head & The Heart The Head & The Heart

    9. Drive By Truckers Go Go Boots

    10. The Strokes Angels

I was really disappointed by Bon Iver's new record,which I felt relied too heavily on effects and technology and killed what was distinctive about the band's sound. I missed out on a few albums from artists like Death Cab For Cutie, Old 97s, Nick Lowe, Dolorean, and Jesse Sykes. Did I miss out on any other good albums?

Beirut is the only band I've heard of and don't know them well. I've got some exploring to do-thanks.
