Favourite albums of 2011

I don't feel I was really up on album releases this year, so take from this list what you will.

1. Bon Iver - Bon Iver
This is a dramatic step up from "For Emma, Forever Ago" in my opinion. It's fully fleshed out, but still leaving lots of space in the songs.























2. Ben Howard - Every Kingdom
Discovered this one while watching a Kelly Slater surfing video online. A really good and catchy British folk like album.






















3. The Dodos - No Color
Incredible acoustic guitar and drum work on this record.























4. Lykke Li - Wounded Rhymes
I love me some Swedes
























5. Drake - Take Care
Jimmy from Degrassi being painfully candid.
























Also enjoyed these records

Mogwai - Hardcore will never die but you will

The Decemberiststs - The King is Dead
