shred, I just had to find a way to use "cuntball" in my list! A great word, it may be my new word for 2010, replacing "teabaggers". :). So many thanks ahead of time!! BTW, I forgot to mention Atlas Sound - Lagos, and Lotus Plaza both Deerhunter related groups which are friggin' fantastic.

Two groups that really grew up this year were the Horrors and The Twilight Sad - both had fantastic new albums this year far far above anything else they've ever put out. I agree with Blir that "Primary Colors" is going to be up there high on my classics list, it reminded me of listening to the Bunnymen's "Heaven Up Here" the first time way back in the day (not stylistically, just that it pulled me in that much).

Exactly what I thought when I first heard "Primary Colors" it has much the same feel as "Heaven Up Here". Just starting to notice The Twilight Sad, haven't given them enough of a listen yet.
