The B List: Top 6 Of The Last 6

As we continue to do some more end of the year house cleaning around HT’s home office to get it all tidied up for 2011, I figured it was about time to continue with a tradition around these parts by taking a look at my favorite six albums of the last half of the year with the Top 6 Of The Last 6…


6) JunipFields


Prior to his success as a solo artist, José González fronted the indie-rock band Junip in the late ’90s in his native country of Sweden.

The singer-songwriter regrouped with his off-again, on-again band mates deciding to record their long in the works full-length debut.

Best Coast


MySpace / Website

In music critics never-ending quest to label every sub-genre we now have something called “chillwave”. While I won’t wax poetic on that subject, one of the acts that have been lumped into this ever growing movement – along with the likes of Neon Indian, Beach Fossils and Memory Tapes – is Best Coast (whether they actually like it or not). The two-piece act, fronted by Bethany Cosentino, have been garnering a lot of much deserved blog attention over the last year after releasing a series of much buzzed about 7-inch singles.
