This blog will be on hiatus until January 7th. I wish you a happy 2005. In the holiday spirit, you may wish to send lumps of coal (literally) to the RIAA and MPAA by donating to IPac, the EFF, or Public Knowledge.

I won’t be able to review my top ten albums of the year as I did last year. However, here are some of my favorite 2004 releases:

• DJ Danger Mouse – The Grey Album
• Magnetic Fields – i
• A.C. Newman – The Slow Wonder
• Sarah Harmer – All of Our Names
• Rilo Kiley – Less Adventurous
• Elliott Smith – From A Basement On the Hill

All but the Grey Album are available via the usual legal music services; the Grey Album is available here.
