WRBB Most-Played of 2010

January 1, 2011 in Old by Marshall B

IF YOU’RE HERE LOOKING TO FIND OUT ABOUT SHOW REQUESTS OR GETTING A SHOW, SCROLL DOWN ONE POST.

Following up on last year’s Top Album chart, I present to you 2010′s most-played list. While last year’s list was curious because it included such relevant classics as the Allman Brothers’ Idlewild South, this year we have an interesting list because either New Hampshire hardcore has become contagious or Marisa is the only one logging into Spinitron. I’m not stoked on either alternative. Without further ado, the list, given in reverse order (for SUSPENSE) by Disk Spins:

10MetricFantasiesAlright, a good album from 2009. Shows its longevity, right? I’m OK with it.
9A Day to RememberHomesickThis album… Also from 2009. Not as good as Metric, but… hmmm. Passable.
8YeasayerOdd BloodOK, Yeasayer played at NU, I can see why this would be here
7Passion PitMannersBest album ever, of course it would be here
6The Receiving End of SirensBetween the Heart and the SynapseUhm. OK.
5Therefore I AmEscapeTherefore I Am… broke up? So we played them a lot? IDK.
4Allman BrothersIdlewild SouthWHAT THE F*** IS WITH THE ALLMAN BROTHERS? I’M NOT MAKING THIS UP.
3Our Last NightWe Will All EvolveWTF New Hampshire hardcore? Marisa or Matt undoubtedly had a hand in this.
2Four Year StrongEnemy of the WorldYou got me. Wow.
1Therefore I AmThe Sound of Human LivesAlright, is Marisa the only one logging playlists? This can’t be right. Oh god.

After that nightmare of a Top 10 list, here’s the list redone to only account for albums released in 2010:
