Best N.Z albums of 2010

There were quite a lot that stuck out for me this year but I really, really loved the following:

Street Chant - Means, reminded me of all my favourite early 90's bands but without sounding at all dated. Highly energetic, very catchy, cool songs.

Full Moon Fiasco - Cosmic Palms, Will Ratray from Thought Creatures side project. Reminded me of Syd Barrett Pink Floyd mixed with early Chills. More intense and brooding than Thought Creature but amazing none the less.

Rotate the Completors:Completed Rotations of the... - Only released on vinyl and cassette but still in my opinion one of the years best. Classed as outsider music but that potentially does a diservice to the songs in many ways as it is very catchy, original, weird and quite technically able. Unlike anything to ever be produced in this country.

Die Die Die - Form. Less in your face than 'Promises' but kick ass none the less. Though one can get the feeling that they are never as good on record as they are when playing live.

So those were my favourites, what were yours?
