Best Albums of 2011: An Introduction

Friends,

There is an old saying that states "Better Late than Never." Well, after 2011 has long ago graced us by, I have finally decided to display my top albums of that year. My 2011 year in review has taken a copious amount of time to write due to my desire to listen to more music than I could even find time to properly review. Hence, a majority of 2012 was actually spent listening to the fine music of 2011, which will delay my 2012 review into 2013.

I write to those of you who consider themselves as musical connoisseurs and/or curious beings. I strongly encourage you to listen to any album with an 8 or higher due to the beauty in the artist's creation. However, due to the lack of objectivity in music, I certainly understand if some of my musical selection does not satisfy your musical pallet. To those of you who find LMFAO, Maroon 5, Justin Bieber or other pop superstars as inspirational music, I warn you that you may become fearful of some of these "hipster" bands with peculiar names and album artwork. Nevertheless, I once again encourage you to continue reading, and perhaps you will find yourself inspired to try out some new tunes.

Friends, I encourage you to sit back, relax, grab a beverage of choice, and begin to read my music reviews written specially for those of us who lack an attention span to read anything longer than a paragraph. While reading, I recommend having iTunes open and then listen to the most popular songs on each album (I do not explicitly list my favorite songs on each album to promote listening to the album in its entirety). 2011 was a top-notch music year, and I hope that you find some of these albums as captivating as I have.

Ranking System:
10: The Immaculate Album
9: Universal Acclaim (Years later, album will be played)
8: Memorable Performance (Plays will die down)
7: Sufficient (Plays will minimize in 2012)
6: Near-Average
...1: Horrendous
