25 for 2009: Three
Album #3: Fever Ray by Fever Ray
Back in February I said that Fever Ray’s debut solo record was one of the best albums of the year. And I wasn’t lying. This dark, spooky record got under my skin all year and it still kind of weirds me out whenever I listen to it. Karin Dreijer Andersson is confidently staking her claim as one of the most innovative and talented electronic musicians working today. Also, best videos of the year.

Song #3: Two Weeks by Grizzly Bear
One of those songs you know you will be listening to for years and years. As I so often mention, I’m a sucker for killer backing vocals and Two Weeks has them in spades.
