Matty Qui-9-props for mentioning Versus!Said Too Much is a great song,I think you`re the only besides me that mentioned them here.

[turnipfarmer]

buckingham rabbit,
figured out the release year of "Rachel Worth" – it’s from 2000, my fault. "Agaetis Byrjun" by Sigur Ros was released last year as well, but that band was one of my MVAs (most valuable acquirements) this year so I posted ’em, as to the Go-Betweens.

[malcom]

Weezer- Island in the Sun
Spoon-Everything Hits At Once
Radiohead-Idiotique
John Fruisiante-Going Inside
Violent Femmes-that one new song, forget the name
U2-Beautiful Day- [img]images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

[Long Distance Drunk]

Some of these may have come out in late 2000, but oh well.
Top 9 (in no particular order)
1) All the Girls–Some guy that used to be in some band with that guy from Sebadoh…what’s his name?
2) Chasing Heather Crazy–Guided by Voices
3) Weather–Built to Spill
4) Church on White–Steven Malkmus
5) Good Fortune–PJ Harvey
6) Photograph–Weezer
7) Knives Out–Radiohead
8) Rockin’ the Suburbs–Ben Folds
