    Mars Volta- Amputechture makes 2006 one of the greatest years in music all by itself, no to mention PJ and Tool.

    07 has had some good albums, just not by my fave band.

    The newest Modest Mouse and In Rainbows are pretty awesome though.

    I'm conflicted. Both great years.

    But 2007 pulls ahead with: Animal Collective, The Arcade Fire, Beirut, Bloc Party, Feist, Francois Virot, Frog Eyes, Great Lake Swimmers, Handsome Furs, Joel Plaskett, Low, Matthew Good, Menomena, Modest Mouse, The National, New Pornographers, The Polyphonic Spree, Radiohead, Rufus Wainwright, Ryan Adams, The Shins, Spoon, Stars, Tegan & Sara, Wilco, Wintersleep.

    That sums up my take pretty nicely. Thanks.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    I'd say 2007 was better than 2006, but in 06, we had Light Grenades :-D... which I looked forward to more than any of the albums this year... yes, even more than In Rainbows.
    If I could, think I would give in.

    Well, 2007 has had new great records from:

    Modest Mouse
    Arcade Fire
    Nine Inch Nails
    White Stripes
    Radiohead (shaping up to be a classic)

    At least I cant remember the last time there was such a great year for music. Many of this year's albums aren't just good, they are great.
