I figured this might be a good teaser for the giant top 50 albums write-up that's in the works. Enjoy.
The Best Songs of 2009 [SIDE A]Acting as a proper countdown to the best song of 2009, this mix is ordered as such. Like any list put together by some dude (this is me, Sutton), it's a subjective exercise in taste. Limited to one jam per artist and no tracks over 10 minutes (sorry, Destroyer). Criteria: I liked these songs more than any other songs released this year.

The Best Songs of 2009 [SIDE B]I know, sometimes the best can be predictable. SIDE B is a collection that's just as strong but maybe a little less played out. Sequenced by flow rather than rank. This was really fun.
01. Windmill - "Big Boom"The aforementioned giant post is an inevitable burn out, so all blurb/praise has been reserved for that. Stay tuned.

04. Delorean - "Seasun"
