2006 YEAR-END LISTS

I am crazy obsessive about lists, so I'm just going to bite the bullet and post some. Adding Peter Bjorn & John is kind of cheating since I didn't like them until yesterday or the day before, because I read another year-end list. Plus all this will change once I make it through the metaphorical piles of records I have to go through. Blah blah blah anyways:

Hah wow. I guarantee you won't find lists like these anywhere else. It's like, "What if Pitchfork, Stylus, NME, Fluokids, ILM and TRL were all actually the same person?"

Re: Ghostface: I really like Mr. Killah, but everytime I hear him all I can think is, "Heyyyy man... chill out. Let's go smoke. Take a chill pill. It's gonna be ok."
