25 for 2009: Five
Album #5: Post-Nothing by Japandroids
One of my first posts of the year concerned the Just About To Blow Up Japandroids and then the band proceeded to at least partially own my musical 2009. Post-Nothing got played relentlessly on my iPod all year long and I still never tire of hearing it. Hell, it soundtracked the family Christmas party over the weekend. Grubby. Little. Anthems.

Song #5: Marlon JD by Manic Street Preachers
It was hard to pick just one song off Journal For Plague Lovers for this list but I finally decided on Marlon JD. Sonically it is actually a bit of departure for the Manics: an aggressive song buoyed by an electro beat. I just wish they had played this one when I saw them back in September.
