Daniel’s Top Ten Albums Of 2009
1. Dream Theater*****black clouds and silver linings 2. Between the buried and me*****the great misdirect 3. Transatlantic*****The whirlwind 4. Muse*****The resistance 5. Dave matthews band*****Big whiskey and the groogrux king 6. U2*****No line on the horizon 7. Devin townsend*****Ki 8. Floodline*****Beneath the waves 9.

There was a great amount of great music from great bands and artists this year. It was hard to narrow it down to 10, but personally these are some of the best I think that came out of 2009. Here are a few B-dass albums of 2009 that didn’t make it in my top ten. Three---Revisions Porcupine tree----The incident Anneke van Giersbergen---pure air Beardfish---Destined solitaire Cynic---traced in air Depeche mode---Sounds of the universe Devin townsend project---addicted An endless sporadic--- Les claypool--- Of Fungi and FoePain of salvation---linoleum Riverside--- Anno Domini High DefinitionScar symmetry---dark matter dimensions The Tangent---Down and out in paris and London Tori amos---Midwinter graces
