    if they count, they're mine too, but that first album came out in '04. they re-released their ep this month and that was from '03. not new, but new to some.

    wilco's ghost is born came out in '04 too.

    Album: either Bright Eyes' "I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning" or Death Cab for Cutie's "Plans". I still have a few weeks left to decide.

    Song: umm, that's a tough one. "Landlock Blue" by Bright Eyes, "What Sarah Said" by DCFC, umm..."Entertain" by Sleater-Kinney. I honestly don't know.

    Best Concert: Well, I'd probably have to say my FAVORITE concert was either Pearl Jam opening up for the Stones or Flogging Molly live in Cleveland sometime in March. That was a good one.

    Best New Artist: Probably the Lawrence Arms. They aren't new in the least bit but I just got into those guys this year and I really like 'em.

    1- Best Album: Strapping Young Lad - Alien
    Itll probably make most people on this forums ears bleed but it is by far the best for the year IMO

    2- Best Song: Opeth - The Grand Conjuration
    i would have chosen a song from Alien^ but the whole album is too good to choose just one song, so this song is amazing, great balance of clean vocals and death growling in this, i love this band...

    3- Best Concert: Nine Inch Nails - Melbourne, Australia ROD LAVER ARENA
    Best concert ive ever been to.

    4- Best New Artist: Wolfmother
    Great Aussie band that are mainstream but still have the music to be liked

    5- Best Video: Opeth - The Grand Conjuration
    watch it, its creepy
    I wish my grass was emo... so then it would cut itself
