Usually I like to have this list done around Christmas, but I just got back from a three week trip to Miami (should I do a trip report? I hardly took any photos at all...). Without further ado, my favorite albums, songs, EPs, and shows. My lists are a bit shorter this year, as I simply haven't had time to listen as much.

Top 10 albums

1. Harmlessness - The World is a Beautiful Place and I Am No Longer Afraid To Die

2. New Bermuda - Deafheaven

3. EMOTION - Carly Rae Jepsen

4. Peanut Butter - Joanna Gruesome

5. Kindred - Passion Pit

6. VEGA Intl. Night School - Neon Indian

7. To Pimp A Butterfly - Kendrick Lamar

8. The Most Lamentable Tragedy - Titus Andronicus

9. The Scene Between - The Go! Team

10. Darkness Forgives - The Saddest Landscape

It should be noted that the first two albums were by far my favorites this year.
