Ok, it has taken me a little while to post my top albums of 2009. I didn't want to, so I decided to post my favorite albums of 2009. Since I have been spending 14-18 hours a day in the studio painting or designing the next Veritas Fashion line, I have been listening to a shitload of tunes (new & old). My absolute favorite album of 2009 Say Hi- Oohs and Aahs, I bought it back in early March and listen to it on a weekly basis, if I am painting I place all of Say Hi and Say Hi to your Mom albums in the mix, I absolutely love Eric Elbogen. (He has been on tour with David Bazan)
Anyways, here are my favorite albums of 2009 in a random mish mash of genre and order.
