Scott's Top 10 Albums of 2009: Number 7

7. J.Tillman - Year in the Kingdom


Year in the Kingdom is a bleak, sparse album reminiscent of Springsteen's Nebraska. Tillman, drummer for last year's Indie favorite Fleet Foxes, delivers a gripping album full of biblical imagery, tales of down on their luck Everymen, and general woe. Year in the Kingdom could easily be the soundtrack to a Cormac McCarthy novel - dark, mysterious, and haunting.
