Oh yeah...

Sorry about my Best of 2010 being a bit of an embarrassment; not only did its sparse and uber-conventional picks show how little I get out these days, but I forgot even to include my favorite album of 2010! (I've had a lot on my mind lately, okay?) Said album is by Big Troubles. While you're listening to this ask yourself, "How did this not make it on to any critic's Best Ofs for the year?" I guess that Poison the Well-er-Sleigh Bells record really was better, huh? I find it funny that the top 20 or so 'best' albums of Pitchfork's Readers Poll (how democratic of them) also appear as the top 20 or so 'most overrated' albums of the same poll. Just a coincidence? We think not. That's just the type of shit that steers the TNRR ship, my friends. Don't listen to critics or confused media mega-site reader wannabes. Listen to us.
