01] crystal stilts - shake the shackles
-I had a really hard time picking one crystal stilts song to go atop the list...I basically had no less then six other songs of theirs that I could have used in the #1 spot. Despite the fact that 'shake the shackles' came out as the lead single for in love with oblivion back in 2010, the album itself was not released till this year. Plus over the last 18 months or so I have listened to that song more than anything else.
-The other band I had the hardest time picking what song to use was with ty segall. You can guess where those two bands will place on my top 20 favorite albums of the year. stay tuned for that list within the next couple days.
-Also, I am aware that a couple of these songs first premiered in late 2010, but I'm not very concerned with that.
