Music all over the place. Most have fantastic closures and etherial movements. Within Temptation took me more than any band this year - Gothic Rock like never before - tremendous operatic vocals with deep symphonic rock. Radiohead has never been better and acoustically tight as any band in the last 30 years. The Nationals were are complete surprise as was Menomena. Brother Down is classic, Sea Legs is memorable and Boy With a Coin is wonderful. Many surprises this year, a joy when you dig a bit. Heart It Races and Keep The Car Running are just plane fun. Life is less complex when you put yourself in the hands of an artist.
