These aren’t going to be the most eclectic or influential ones just albums which make me grin from ear to ear like the joker.
- My first album of 2009 is a danceable little fellow by a Canadian lass called Emily Haines aka Metric. As you may be aware she is a member of one of my favourite bands of the last 2 years Broken Social Scene and this album is much like their work with a mix of the Breeders/Smashing Pumpkins and probably every other indie/rock girl group. The amazing guitar hooks and blistering synth loops are what made this album. Listen to Gold, Guns, Girls and Front if you want to dance around like a possessed giraffe or Twilight Galaxy for a more inverted reflective view. Anywho, the whole album is worth buying – or listening to on my Spotify playlist
