Top 10 of 2009 - Music

4.Julian Casablancas - Phrazes for the Young

I wrote about this one here, a month or so ago and my feelings haven't changed at all. I'd put the first three tracks of this album up against any first three tracks on any other album ever made.

Also, SPIN put this album in their top 40 (at #30...) and they listen to much better music than I do (and also much more pretensious music too), so that's gotta count for something.

Them Crooked Vultures made Spin's list too, ranked higher than I did at #29.

Here's track 3 from Phrazes for the Young, "11th Dimension," an amazing synth-driven rock song:

This song contains the best lyrics of the year.
