Bruce Leperre’s Top Ten Albums of 2009

1. Heartless Bastards / The Mountain (Fat Possum)

As they cruise that long lonesome highway at 3am from the garage to the Mississippi Delta to the Mountains of Appalachia and back again, the Heartless Bastards create something unique and undeniably captivating. Imagine PJ Harvey in a three way with Robert Plant and Robert Johnson under a full moon – and I think you’ll have an idea of what The Mountain sounds like.

2. The Decemberists / Hazards of Love (Rough Trade)

If you’ve ever imagined Death Cab For Cutie’s Ben Gibbard replacing Ian Anderson in Jethro Tull and thought it would sound totally cool – the Decemberists prove you were absolutely right.

3. The Avett Brothers / I and Love and You (American)

Veteran indie Americana outfit (featuring brothers Seth and ) team up with superstar producer Rick Rubin and his American record label to record a ballad heavy disc full of heart and soul that burns with an unstoppable fire even Hurricane Katarina couldn’t put out.

4. Neko Case / Middle Cyclone (Anti-)

5. Carolyn Mark & NQ Arbuckle / Let’s Just Stay Here (Mint)

6. The Wooden Sky / If I Don’t Come Home You’ll Know I’m Gone (Black Box)

7. Florence and the Machine / Lungs (Island)

8. Lee Harvey Osmond / A Quiet Evil (Latent)

9. Melissa MacLelland / Victoria Day (Six Shooter)

10. Alanna Levandoski / Lions & Werewolves (Blue Lily)
