Not to be a downer or anything, but i found this year very dissapointing in music. I don't even know if i could compile a top 10 list for albums this year.

There have been a handful of albums that have really inspired me and just connected with me instantly.

Avenged Sevenfold
Carry On
Into the Wild

Off the top of my head that's really the only ones i can think of that came out this year. For me, Kid Rock, Velvet Revovler, Alter Bridge, Linkin Park, Foo Fighters and Ozzy were let downs. I was expecting more out of them, and i was expecting albums that had more staying power in my stereo. Right now i have Carry On, Avenged Sevenfold, Revelations, Out of Exile and a mix tape in my stereo.

To be honest, i think this would have been a perfect year for Chinese Democracy. Those leaks we got were way beyond almost anything that came out this year. I've seen articles that list Chinese Democracy as the best album of 2007 just based off the leaks, imagine if the whole album was out.

It's just been a sad year in music for me. There just doesn't seem to be anything out there that i want to listen to. I have to turn back to stuff that was released many years ago and try to dig up new stuff from the past that i may have skipped over.
