Black Helicopter "That Specific Function"
Lostage 3 song EP
Fin Fang Foom "With the Gift Comes The Curse"
1 Mile North "Minor Shadows"
Iron & Wine "The Creek Drank the Cradle"
Songs: Ohia "Magnolia Electric Co"

Yeesh, so many more that I want to list. '03 was the best year for music since '96 imo, and I still haven't gotten around to listening to everything recommended to me.

Kilik, glad to see another CoCa fan

Although, I really can't say that In Keep Secrets was in my Top 5. It was a great album, but it was also pretty lacking IMO.

1 - The Postal Service - Give Up
2 - Brand New - Deja Entendu
3 - Death Cab For Cutie - Transatlanticism
4 - Radiohead - Hail to the Thief
5 - Bright Eyes - Fevers and Mirrors

Heh, good to see there's people with plenty of good choices for this

Only 2 albums I've heard from 2003, however, both I liked quite a bit. And you can't blame me for living in a very limited musical world much of which consists of archive material

Mars Volta - Deloused in the Comatorium
King Crimson - The Power to Believe

Doesn't really count, but both Television reissues were the best albums I bought all year.

I'm sure those both kick ass, I don't wanna say though because I don't own copies. Nest time I have money though I'm getting Bright Eyes, t's only $9.99 at Best Buy.

Copy and Pasted from Demonseal:

(In no particular order, I'm just flipping through my CD book which is pretty randomely set up)

Fall Out Boy - Take This To Your Grave
Saosin - Translating The Name
Bleed The Dream - Awake
A Santa Cause - It's a Punk Rock Christmas (It's great what these guys did. They wrote their OWN x-mas songs, didn't just cover jingle bells or some shit. On top of this, all profit went to charity, AIDs I THINK)
Blink 182 [Self Titled]
Story of The Year - Page Avenue
The Ataris - So Long, Astoria (It might have been that they're such a favorite band of mine and such good friends that I was just ultimetly stoaked and had to buy it, and was so happy with it that I listened to it atleast 3 times a night for weeks, but all and all no matter what it was, I DID listen to it atleast 3 times a night for weeks, so it makes the list)
Brand New - Deja Entendu (This album is so incredible, could very likley officialy be the best album all year)
Mest [Self Titled]
Slick Shoes - Anywhere But Here
Thrice - The Artist In The Ambulance (They REALLY out did themselves)
Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue
Boys Night Out - Make Yourself Sick
Thursday - War All The Time
Anberlin - Blueprints For The Blackmarket
