i listened to youngsbower's "relayer" more than anything else above this year but it's actually late 2002 i guess.

i suppose i could've listed dizzee rascal, jay-z, lfo and mutant disco but i had a bad habit of listening to only 2 or 3 songs several times in a row and then taking it off. i think i forgot andres' s/t on mahogani, too.

super furry animals?! are you kidding me? who's going to even think of that when naming good albums that were released in 03? nobody. nobody even talks about it now.

lightning bolt on the other hand should be number one. or anybody that's actually DOING SOMETIHNG.

rock music gets so boring sometimes.

Apparently the sister of the bassist or drummer or something of lightning bolt goes to my school. That's the rumor.

To the posthumous Sun Ra solo piano CD that was my favorite of 2003 (in 2003, but probably still my favorite now), I would add:

Cooper-Moore/Assif Tsahar: America
John Fahey: Red Cross
William Parker: Scrapbook
Matthew Shipp: Equilibrium
Wadi el-Safi: Netrik Sahran
Rahim AlHaj: Iraqi Music in a Time of War

Also: Various: Lost Classics of Salsa, reissues of very rare tracks from the 70s.

Man. There were some pretty silly lists up there. Makes me feel a little bit better about the direction that ILM has gone.
