Top 40 Albums of 2009

I told you I would bring it, and here it is. Well, half of it. Here is the beginning of my Top 40 Albums of 2009. However, it is only numbers 40 - 21. The other half will be published on BeatCrave tomorrow, so make sure to check in there on Tuesday!

2009 was a great year in music. To much dismay of others, indie rock took a slight electronic turn but it was actually to my delight! I'd like to say that I have a pretty broad taste in music ranging from pop to punk to rock to electro to soul and more. Yet, I know many people will disagree with this Top 40 list. It's just a consequence I'm ready to face as I post this.

Here is the bottom half of my Top 40 Albums of 2009...

I've been meaning to write accompanying blurbs for each album, but because of the time crunch I'll insert those and photos in a little later.
