Its December and its time for the best of/year end list.
I am revealing the Top 75 on the Best of 2010 Canadian albums.

A great rock experimental psychedelic album.
Listen to Wires
Great alterna-pop album from the Edmonton band.
Listen to Pools
Brenda from Earbuds and Ticket Stubs says: “Solid songwriting, solid backing band, fun rhythm. Love the drawl in his voice and it seems to have more menace in it this album.”
Listen to Bitch City

Listen to Haircuts For Everybody!! & A Tinfoil Everythings
After quite some time, the band finally released their full length debut.
A very intense work of music.
A surprise from this year’s Polaris Music Prize Shortlist.
Listen to Another Year Again
This album marks a surprising return from this Montreal band.
Full of pop, electro-dance beats.
Listen to Garden Waltz & Grace (Love On The Block)
Saw them live for the first time and they were brilliant.
Listen to You Roll Like Raindrops
A truly talented and nice musician. Saw her at Bands Undone and was just wonderful.
Listen to You’re Coming Home
One of those albums you should take out while camping or relaxing at home or the backyard.
Listen to Me and My Doe
Its very high energy and vibrant indie experimental rock with a touch of Quebec sound.
This album should be in a western movie soundtrack.
Listen to Adelaide and The Outlaw
Sadly this was the last album from them.
But its a fun, crazy and sometimes angry music for those not familiar of the Ottawa Indie Punk Rock Garage music scene.
So get your dancing shoes on and have a blast to this record. Also the album is free to download.
Listen to Highlighter (Reverse Video)
Selt title debut is catchy, accessible and easy to listen to.
Listen to She’s a Weight
