Sound on the Sound
Putting a positive spin on procrastination and the barrage of “best of” lists and “top ranked” charts the new year invariably brings, Sound on the Sound took some real time reflecting on the best music of 2010. The music blog has just released its Top 25 Northwest Albums of 2010, a list which includes artists from Vancouver (B.C.) down to Cottage Grove, Oregon and as far East as Forks. The blog also doesn’t count bands that are signed to Northwest labels, but hail from elsewhere, which makes it a bona fide Northwest roots ranking. Click the link above to view the top 25 most “significant” albums of 2010 as deemed by Sound on the Sound to discover some of the hidden local gems that got lost in the post-December mad dash.
