BEST ALBUMS OF 2011( 20-11)

20-Woods - Sun & Shade

Woods are from Brooklyn, on their sixth album Sun&Shade they are playing  an excellent lo-fi,psychedelic music with big and nice krautrock influence. Just listen Out of the Eye to hear Neu!'s classic Hallogallo.

19-Summer Camp - Welcome to Condale

Impressive debut, cheesy rock&roll...

18-Akron/Family- S/t II : The Cosmic Birth and Journey of Shinju TNT

17-Prince Rama - Trust Now

Powerfull music from Brooklyn's female duo , it is somewhere between Dead Can Dance&Animal Collective. Their music is not the only connection with Animal Collective, the record comes also from Paw Tracks label(originally founded by Animal Collective members).

16-Deerhunter - Rhapsody Originals(Live)

15-Boris - Attention Please

There are many kinds of Boris, noise Boris,grunge Boris,doom Boris and this is the pop Boris. Their most accessable album in their career. I just love it.

14-Dengue Fever - Cannibal Courtship

13-Sonic Youth - SYR 9: Simon Werner a Disparu (OST)

Things are changing on Sonic Youth's site with the divorce of Kim&Thurston, but this is probably their best in their SYR series.

12-Zola Jesus - Conatus

She is one of the most original female singer of the year. Highly recommended... "Lick the Palm of the Burning Handshake" is one of the best song of the year, the whole album feels like a cold breeze. This is experimental pop music , or I would call it modern pop.

11-Peaking Lights- 936

Not Not Fun records is one of my favorite label, every year they release very interesting albums. Peaking Lights is one of the best surprise of 2011. A hypnothic dub music, a music created by a duo who knows what they are doing.  It is the sound that they created makes this album so unique. King Tubby's soul was there , right in the studio...
