favorite eleven songs of 2011
- "amor fati", washed out. naturally.
- "the broken places", moby. moby combined sounds just right to create a mellow mood.
- "keep pushing on", john maus. john maus is so rad.
- "posters", youth lagoon. love the whole album. give this song some time, once it really starts, you'll know it.
- "raw umber twilight", WALLS. one of my newest favorite running songs.
- "somebody that i used to know (feat. kimbra)", gotye. i'll admit it, don't know any other gotye. but i am going to explore on account of how much i love this track.
- "steep hills of vicodin tears", a winged victory for the sullen. the ambient stars of the lid coupled with piano. a beauty.
- "te amo", atlas sound. bradford cox is the shit. he made it onto my bests last year with deerhunter. keep it up, bradford, it's that good.
- "towers", bon iver. hands down one of my favorite concerts this year.
- "we have everything", young galaxy. i'm not sick of this song, and i've been listening to it for almost a whole year.
- "whole love", wilco. i'm usually not a fan of wilco. john said this song sounds reminiscent of the grateful dead. that explains it.
