Here is another installment of the best of 2010: Canadian albums.
This time its from #51-#60.
This section I had trouble listing since I had extended from 50 to 75.
What is surprising is that only one album in the list which I actually did a review on the album.
Overall these albums were still great to listen to.
Now you have to wait for the last week of December to find out the Top 50 Canadian albums of 2010.
Let’s the guessing and waiting begin.
Check out the list.
- Woodpigeon – Die Stadt Muzikanten
- The Mountains and the Trees – I Made This For You
- Matthew Barber – True Believer
- Holy F**k – Latin
- Politique – Secret Shock
- Black Mountain – Wilderness Heart
- Wintersleep – New Inheritors
- Winchester Warm –Sky One Room
- Fanshaw – Dark Eyes
- Pop Winds – The Turquoise
This a pretty record and Mark’s vocal is just so beautiful to listen.
Listen to Duck Duck Goose
Saw him live in August, Jon Janes a brilliant singer/songwriter with his catchy indie acoustic folk music.
Listen to More, More, More and Minimum Wage Lovers
Matthew Barber is such an under-rated musician. A mix of indie folk rock and to pop rock.
Listen to Revolution of the Sun

Somewhat a mellower sound than LP but still a fine album.
Listen to Red Lights, Latin America and Stilettos
Who says Ottawa doesn’t party? Secret Shock is just want we need. Good ol’ fun new wave dance pop tracks.
Listen to Me Meet After Dark and Battles
A change from their usual epic psychedelic rock styles and more of a radio friendly approach on Wilderness Heart.
Listen to Radiant Hearts, The Hair Song and Old Fangs
Melody from Singinglamb.ca: “New Inheritor may not instantly win over Wintersleep’s old fans, but the album will surely inherit many new ones.”
Listen to New Inheritors, Black Camera, Encyclopedia and Echolocation
Winchester Warm is more of serious side to them than their other moniker of Poorfolk.
The album is filled with great indie acoustic folk/rock music.
Listen to Surf’s Up
Saw her live in June. There was this coolness from Fanshaw. Very similar to Feist.
Listen to Dark Eyes
The guys at Arbutus sure knows how to get interesting bands on their roster.
A great indie electronica-dance pop experimental music.
Listen to Owl Eyes, Feel It and Drowning in the Dark
