So, here's the list, according to Gorilla vs. Bear, for the year's best of 2010. AND this is their list for best albums of the year. I have to disagree with Beach House in the top spot beating out Ariel Pink but whatevs. It's only me and my humble opinion that believes AP's album is so much more diverse, complex, thoughtful, poetic and deserving of the top spot.
So strange to say goodbye to a decade. Enjoy the tunes, records, videos and your memories of the year that (oh, soooo) quickly flew by. Seriously, where the fuck did it go? I'm still wondering where summer went.
My personal favorites include Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti's Round and Round (!!) and Kurt Vile's Ocean City from the (absolute genius) Square Shells EP on Matador. It was an amazing year for music; thank you for the records and live gigs!
Here's to 2011 bringing us health, prosperity and all the things you wish it to offer.
Love you all and THANK YOU for making this a great year for oh, so so so many reasons. XO, NoNY.

I second this emotion. Ariel Pink was the best record of the year for sure. It's so fucking you V.
Haha, ONE thing we agree on Mr. Hasselhoff. See you tomorrow dear.
Miss French, don't forget we agree on margarita machines lush. Let me rephrase, the loveliest of the lushes. Bigger besos than yours -- Mr. Hasselhoff.
See you [and the dancing shoes] tomorrow. It's past your bedtime. Go to bed.
Ja Weise hinter Schlafenszeit. Gute Nacht!!
