One exciting thing about Stereogum is that it's a big time popular blog.
They even have awards and stuff. In fact, I am usually more agreeable to the outcome of the Gummy Awards than another Rolling Stone's "top 100 great singers of all time from 1990."
You can also vote for your favourite blog other than Stereogum in these awards. I don't expect to come anywhere near some of the more deserved dedicated champs out there pimping music like a full time job. But if you vote because I've alerted you to the fact that you can vote for the top music of the year then I'll like you; you know, in the internet sense.
If you can't remember what happened this year, Stereogum have provided a list of albums on high rotation this year.
My top three albums, by the way, were:
1. Lykke Li - Youth Novels
2. TV on the Radio - Dear Science
3. Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
Happy voting!
