In alphabetic order!
Apparat - Walls
Beautiful techno/glitch/pop album from Germany.
Battles - Mirrored
One of the few bands around that can honestly be called unique.
Big Business - Here Come The Waterworks
The business half of The Melvins, quite literally.
Bloc Party - A Weekend In The City
Out of place in this list, but I don't care.
Boris with Merzbow - Rock Dream
Not as big a head fuck as you probably think if you are aware of the separate careers of these two.
Burial - Untrue
Sad but strangely not depressing, true urban music.
Chrome Hoof - Pre-Emptive False Rapture
Think Black Sabbath meets Funkadelic for an easy point of reference.
The Cinematic Orchestra - Ma Fleur
Sparse and wonderful - true soul music.
Fink - Distance & Time
This years Sophia, but not as depressing.
Jesu - Conqueror
Justin Broadrick goes pop? Get the Japanese version for the bonus Sundown/Sun Rise EP, which is stunning!
Jesu - Pale Sketches
More pop music? But for the fans this time.
KTL - 2
Music for dead children, scares me silly.
Larsen - Abeceda
Tribute to the work of Czech typographer Karel Teige... No! Come back! It's really good!
Nine Inch Nails - Year Zero
Trent Reznor discovers his social conscience - and writes some pretty good tunes in the process.
Om - Pilgrimage
Devotional Stoner rock via drums, bass, vocals and nothing else.
Oxbow - The Narcotic Story
Oxbow are a decent, honest to goodness Rock Band with lots of interesting ideas.
PJ Harvey - White Chalk
Sparse and honest, to the point of being uncomfortable.
Stars - In Our Bedroom After The War
Melodramatic and romantic, but in a good way.
Weedeater - God Luck and Good Speed
Sweet, sweet, stoner sludge.
Zozobra - Harmonic Tremors
As close to an Old Man Gloom album as I'll get this year.
Coming next, my top songs of 2007.
