Adam's Gil Scott-Heron/Jamie xx pick just made me more excited for their forthcoming album We're New Here. Also, San Diego teens Range Rover delivered on their dreamy jam "There's Nothing For Me Here," and I wish Dos had more of an internet presence outside of his Soundcloud.

12 Albums From 2010 I Want To Recognize
...because they're not by Kanye West, Robyn, Sufjan Stevens or Deerhunter, because we honored them a bunch already, assuming what we give them is worth calling "honor" (in alphabetical order).
by Gavin
Bathcrones - Psychorama
Baths - Cerulean
Beach House - Teen Dream (whatever)
Emeralds - Does It Look Like I'm Here?
Forest Swords - Dagger Paths
Mark McGuire - Living With Yourself
Oneohtrix Point Never - Returnal
Pac Div - Don't Mention It Mixtape
Sam Amidon - I See The Sign
Tennis - Daytrotter Session 9.24.2010
Valgeir Sigurðsson - Draumalandið
Various Artists - Dope Mountain Fuck
Maybe when I trust myself more as a writer, I'll write about what, specifically, I like about each album, but every time I've tried it in the past, my own words sound completely worthless and tired by the end. So these are albums I enjoyed because I heard something new and exciting in each one. None of them played to my expectations - they all surpassed them.
