Year-end music round-up
‘Tis the season for “Best of” album lists, something I generally look forward to. So far , both Popmatters and Pitchfork have come out with their lists of the top 50 albums of 2005. Popmatters’ pick for number one is Twin Cinema by the New Pornographers, while Pitchfork has gone with Sufjan Stevens’ Illinois. Meanwhile, KEXP will be starting their countdown of the top 90.3 albums of the year on December 30.
