I was a bit disapointed with the Most Serene Republic, and I can't say I really get all the hype over the Arcade Fire, I mean Wolf Parade.
Way to avoid Clap Your Heads Say Yeah, and Sufjan Stevens. :)
I didn't make an exclusively canadian list specifically to avoid clapyourhandssayyeah and sufjanstevens. wait for my top 25 of 2005. I can see not going in for most serene republic, but if you're confusing arcade fire and wolf parade you're listening more to the hype than to the music.
