Top 5 Albums of 2010

This week seems to be the week everyone in the blog-world is putting forth their TOP 5's & 10's of 2010.

2010 was a good one for interesting and thought provoking music. A couple days ago I looked at all of the albums and new artists I added to my shelves, and took on the task to narrow my collection to just 5 stand-outs.

Today, my TOP 5 Albums of the past year. Drum roll if you'd like...

1. Sigh No More (Mumford and Sons)

2. The Medicine (John Mark McMillan)

3. Feathers (Fort Christmas)

4. October (Sleeping at Last)

5. Feedback (Derek Webb)

If you haven't heard these, you should do yourself a favor and click the links to check them out.

Thanks for reading,
Ross

p.s. rather than giving a brief synopsis of each album, I decided a link would be better served (for you and the artist); this way you can write your own synopsi and be your own critic.
