1. Toad the Wet Sprocket - Dulcinea
Toad is one of the bet bands ever to make music. Nothing like that will totally blow you away like a victor wooten bass solo or a chris thile-like mandolin player but everything is so perfectly placed. amazing. this is their best albumin my opinion. Tracks to play close attention to: Fly From Heaven, Something’s Always Wrong, Fall Down

2. Bebo Norman - Ten Thousand Days
First CD I ever bought. well second, I bought Chris Tomlin - the noise we make, before but… fuck that doesn’t count at all. Bebo is amazing and this is the best album I’ve heard.. althought I love the Fabric of verse as well, but 10,000 days is way amazing. Top Tracks: The Hammer Holds, Healing Song, The Man Inside, Selwood Farm

3. Goo Goo Dolls - A Boy Named Goo, Dizzy up the girl
Such an unlikely good band. Formerly known as Sex Maggot. Skip through most of the tracks Jonny didn’t write but pay attention to: Long Way Down, Burnin’ up, Name, Slide, Broadway, Black Balloon, Acoustic #3

4. Ryan Adams - anything and you have my respect. if nothing you have to at least appreciate Gold. My current musical crush. Can’t get over this guy. just buy all his shit I can’t even begin to list songs. Eh I’ll try. New York New York, Sweet Carolina, Come pick me up.. fuck I’ll be here forever. Go buy Gold and Heartbreaker to start if you don’t have them already.

5. Nickel Creek - self-titled or this side. Best band possible. The end.
6. Radiohead - hail to the theif (not to be cliche)
7. Caedmon’s Call - 40 acres
8. Rage Against the Machine - Battle of L.A.
9. Third Eye Blind - self-titled

after number 4 I became to lazy to finsihed this entry to completion. you know why they’re awesome I don’t have to spoonfeed it to you dammit.
