Send to a Friend
Here at BYT we’re a little obsessed with music. Some of our best friends are DJs.
So here’s what we want from you:
1) List anywhere from one to ten of your favorite albums of 2006 (original release date must be in 2006, no US re-releases, reissues or comps, that is old news sucka! DJ mixes and EPs are ok though)
2) Optionally, embellish your list with comments about why these albums are super awesome (just a list is good enough though)
3) Feel free to list your least fav album of 2006 as well (hint: She Wants Revenge or DJ Shadow)
4) Email what you got, plus where you’re from and your age to cale@brightestyoungthings.com
We’ll compile all the results and post a year end BYT reader’s choice top 10 list. Wheeeee! And we might use some of your comments if they’re not retarded.
What’s in it for me you ask? Besides the obvious incentive to voice your opinion to strangers, we’ll pick one respondent at random who will get this groovy prize package including:
being guest listed to the Jan 6th, 2007 Tease party @ DC9 w/ Stellastarr* Djing
being guest listed to the Jan 20th, 2007 Garutachi event @ R&R Hotel w/ somebody cool DJing (we don’t know yet)
+ we’ll throw in some drink tickets
aaaaand
a $20 Gift Certificate to the new DC record shop Som Records!

December 11, 2006 at 2:09 pmdude, 2006 was full of bad albums. disappointing sophmore albums. yeah!
December 13, 2006 at 2:30 pmagreed, the sophomore efforts of a number of bands were degrees of disappointment for the faithful (futureheads, kasabian, the killers, the yeah yeah yeahs, scissor sisters, strokes), and subsequent efforts by others (the rapture and the knife), but there were some wonderful albums as well.
December 18, 2006 at 11:00 amfor the record - First Impressions of Earth was not the Strokes second album - it was their third. And it was great - so kiss my ass! merry xmas!
