Top 100 Albums of '07: 3 & 4

3. LCD Soundsystem Sound of Silver; I've listened to LCD Soundsystem's Sound of Silver a lot this year. I don't know the exact number but I'd say a minimum of once a week since it was released in March. That's pretty impressive in itself, but even more impressive is the fact that I don't think I've skipped a single track when listening to this album. It's rare these days that you find an album like that, with all the singles, b-sides, remixes, and what not filling up the internets, there aren't as many true albums as there once were. Of course there is more proof then just my own listening habits, take a look at all the year-end lists out there and count how many different tracks from Sound Of Silver are making the lists. It's incredible, it seems everyone has a different favorite song here, and that's okay 'cause they are all spectacular.
LCD Soundsystem - "Someone Great"
LCD Soundsystem - "New York I Love You"

4. The Deathset Rad Warehouses Bad Neighborhoods; The Baltimore scene certainly had a huge hand in shaping 2007. With vibrant, creative artists, and a sense of community that is second to none the scene is bursting from the seams with talents of all stripes. The Deathset are one of the city's latest imports, originally hailing from Australia the duo burst onto the scene this year with this crazy fast EP. The album seemingly lasts about ten minutes, but over the course of 10 songs and 2 remixes we learn all we need to know about The Deathset. They are not a band that is worried about substance, they are worried about having the most fun rocking out. Their synth beats, barely audible lyrics, and furious guitars barely rate above noise, but when they combine them they become a delicious taste of the future of dance rock. It's noisy, loud, tough to understand, but its so addictive I couldn't get enough of it this year.
The Deathset - "Intermission"
The Deathset - "Impossible (Dan Deacon Remix)"
