I’ve been meaning to post this up for several weeks.  I planned on writing in-depth penetrating analysis of all these CD’s, but alas as usual, I didn’t have time.  Considering it’s nearly March I figured I should at least just post a damn list.    As always, I encourage you if you’re interested in purchasing any of these CD’s,  that you do so where possible directly from the artist.  Also, the usual disclaimer applies, I don’t pay attention to the actual release date of this music, my criteria is if I first heard the CD in 2007, then it’s a favourite of 2007. 

So in alphabetical order, my favourite CD’s of 2007:

Blonde Redhead - 23
Calla - Strength in Numbers
Deerhoof - Friend Opportunity
Gojira - From Mars to Sirius
Grails - Burning Off Impurities
Monkey3 - 39 Laps
Oceansize - Frames
Pelican - City of Echoes
Porcupine Tree - Nil Recurring (ep)
Radiohead - In Rainbows
Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - In Glorious Times
Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga
Young Gods - Super Ready / Fragmente

Special honourable mention for the best attempt at a sprawling conceptual CD:
Rasputina - Oh Perilous World

Feel free to add comments on CD’s you believe I neglected.  Chances are I missed some good stuff in 2007, so let me know.

Or just agree, disagree or pick a fight for the hell of it.

The first ever Organical Day.  The first ever Organical show at the fabulous Drake Hotel.  The first ever Organical appearance at Elvis Monday.

The debut of John on drums and Mikey on my pedal board.

Remember a few weeks ago, when we had that motherfucker snow-storm the first time? Remember when I was up to my frozen ass in snow, shovelling my driveway for two hours? Remember when I said, during that time, “Gee, this is GREAT! More snow, please!”

Remember that? I was being SARCASTIC.

Loser.
