Here We Go Magic on MBE

Oh look, our old friends Here We Go Magic are performing on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic:




KCRW had each of its dj's and other on-air personalities put together their own list of Top 10 albums of 2010. Here We Go Magic didn't make any of the 21 lists, but our old friends Broken Bells made 6 of their lists, and our old friends Massive Attack made 4. In addition to voting for both of these two bands, dj Chris Douridas also included our old friend Laura Veirs, and in addition to Broken Bells, dj Anne Litt included our old friends Local Natives, and dj Valida Carroll included our old friends Two Door Cinema Club. Eric J. Lawrence's list included our old friends The Black Angels.

Also, some magazine called Rolling Stone came out with their 30 Best Albums of 2010 which included our old friends Spoon. Rolling Stone also has a list of 50 Top Singles that includes our old friends Junip, Massive Attack, Broken Bells, and Spoon. Spoon was also included at Number 31 in Spin Magazine's list of 40 Top Albums, and our old friends Deerhunter made their No. 2 spot. FACT Magazine, having already released their list of Best Albums of 2010, are now releasing their list of the Top 100 Tracks of 2010, which so far includes our old friends jj (No. 79) and The xx (No. 77).

The Atlanta-based web site Ohm Park also released its list of the Top 20 Atlanta Albums of 2010 which featured our old friends Sealions (No. 19), our ubiquitous friends Deerhunter at No. 3, and, surprisingly, our old friends Living Rooms at No. 1.

Meanwhile, a local web site, Atlanta A-List, has included the efforts of our old friends Broken Bells, Menomena, and Deerhunter in one of their three Top 10 lists. Regarding Deerhunter, they note "Deerhunter is the best thing that ever happened to Atlanta, and the rest of indie-rock for that matter. Halcyon Digest has just the right mix of experimental, rock, pop, and lo-fi. I like every Deerhunter album a little bit more than the preceding one, which probably tells you how much I’m going to LOVE the next one!"
