Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to announce my plans tonight to unveil...
The First Hollow Chatter Countdown Ever!
As a small writing exercise, I'm going to write capsule reviews of my fifteen favorite albums from last year. I figure I may as well turn this into my first set of serial posts ever. I'll start tonight and hopefully wrap up Wednesday or Thursday.
Anyone who knows me knows I love lists, but I have imposed some limits on the amount I'm gonna post on the blog. This will be my first real one.
Entry #15 should be arriving later tonight, but here's a sneak-peek of the almost-made-its:
The Unchosen Finalists for My Top 15 Albums of 2007 (ie, #s 16-30)
16. Iron & Wine - The Shepard's Dog
17. Feist – The Reminder
18. LCD Soundsystem – Sound of Silver
19. Kanye West – Graduation
20. The Fiery Furnaces – Widow City
21. Stars of the Lid – And Their Refinement of the Decline
22. Menomena – Friend & Foe
23. Lil Wayne – The Carter III
24. Caribou – Andorra
25. M.I.A. – Kala

If the runners-up are that good, you know the list will be worth reading...right?
