Honorable Mentionables
Putting the last sparklies and special odds and ends onto the album list for 2007...just figured I'd post up the albums that ALMOST made it. These are albums that I enjoyed very much, but somehow couldn't squeeze onto the final list for whatever reason. Also, this is in absolutely zero order, so don't you try associating any types of monkeyshines like "oh, he eliminated They Might Be Giants first, he must've thought that was a shitty record!"; I will kick you in the taint.
Mourn ye their loss!
They Might Be Giants - The Else
Jay-Z - American Gangster
Against Me! - New Wave
The Arcade Fire - Neon Bible (that's right! Come and get me, every music publication everywhere!)
The Chemical Brothers - We Are the Night
Talib Kweli - Eardrum
In This Moment - Beautiful Tragedy
Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga
The Go! Team - Proof of Youth
Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - In Glorious Times
Foo Fighters - Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace
Otep - The_Ascension
Serj Tankian - Elect the Dead
Wilco - Sky Blue Sky
Say Anything - In Defense of the Genre
Sage Francis - Human the Death Dance
Eisley - Combinations
Nightwish - Dark Passion Play
