Albums of 20050 comments

So, here’s my favourite 30 albums of 2005. Their order changes on a regular basis, but I’ll stick with this for now. Won’t bother writing little reviews of them, as I’m still using an annoying laptop to type this stuff up. Go to Pitchfork or Amazon for further information. Podcast featuring tracks from the top 20 will follow. I ought to point out that because I imported it from the U.S. last year, Arcade Fire’s sublime “Funeral” went into last year’s chart, and is therefore exempt from this year’s. It would’ve been number 1.
