Favorite Albums of 2013

Wanted to get my best albums (full lengths) of 2013 rundown, and associated playlist, up before I head south to Atlanta for holiday vacation. Expect a Best EP/7" list and set of favorite songs from this year that happen to be off albums just outside these two lists (was hard to pare things down) in the very near future.  I also will  be posting top 10 (ish) lists from some great people with impeccable taste over the next week or two.  So, with all that said, here's my top 25 for the year.


1. Restorations - LP2
2. Arliss Nancy - Wild American Runners
3. Captain We're Sinking - The Future is Cancelled
4. Worship This! - Tomorrow I'll Miss You
5. Red City Radio - Titles
6. Two Cow Garage - The Death of the Self Preservation Society
7. Banquets - S/T
8. Jason Isbell - Southeastern
9. Signals Midwest - Light on the Lake
10. Broadcaster - A Million Hours
11. The Bootheel - Goat's Lodge
12. Donovan Wolfington - Stop Breathing
13. Mount Moriah - Miracle Temple
14. Doc Feldman & The LD50 - Sundowning at the Station
15. Nightmares for a Week - Civilian War
16. The Sky We Scrape - Divides
17. Iron Chic - The Constant One
18. Lemuria - The Distance is So Big
19. John Moreland - In the Throes
20. Elway - Leavetaking
21. Save Ends - Warm Hearts Cold Hands
22. Sundowner - Neon Fiction
23. Great Apes - Thread
24. Flatliners - Dead Language
25. Great Cynics - Like I Belong

Just missed: Austin Lucas, Little Big League, Jimmy Islip & The Ghosts, Swearin', Laura Stevenson and several others.
