	Faith No More : Album of the Year - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The explosive album opener, "Collision," and "Naked in Front of the Computer" show that the band can still compose prime heavy rockers, while other musical forms were included as well (the romantic ballad "She Loves Me Not," the evil boogie of "Home Sick Home," and the Middle Eastern sounds of "Mouth to Mouth").
		For the gripping album closer, "Pristina," the '90s turmoil in Yugoslavia is used as a backdrop for a tale of lovers being separated due to war.
		Album of the Year was a fitting way for one of alt-rock's most influential and important bands to end its career.

		The album does end, but you can get this masterpiece and listen to it again, I just wish the band could get back together myself, but there will always be their albums.
		The album features a new guitarist in the lineup, but that is not really important as it doesn't add or take away from the industrial prog rock project that this thing seems to take on.
		This album has a collection of songs that vary greatly in theme and sound, and that is what makes it all the more enjoyable as a truly complete album.

	Year in Review 2001 \| Music
		The band toured all year and provided hope and inspiration to hundreds of thousands while successfully meeting its stated goal: to reclaim its mantle as the best rock 'n' roll band in the world.
		New York and the nation could both use a boost and we got it thanks to the rush that came with listening to the punk-edged fury of the Big Apple's new saviors The Strokes, and their scorching debut disc Is This It.
		The fact that this album was released on Sept. 11, just adds a strange and weird footnote to its timeless wonder.

		There are many choices for album of the year.

	Good Life: Album of the Year: Pitchfork Record Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Album of the Year's premise is somewhat ungainly: to document the passage of a year in 12 songs, one for each month.
		Augmented by Mike Mogis' best production of the year (and manning the boards for a label like Saddle Creek, it's been a busy one), each song seems to hover in fathomless space, but interacts with an effortless synthesis that belies such separation.
		The complaints with the album are worn-in with old caveats, namely the "emo" tag.

	Album Of The Year
		The Latin GRAMMY Album Of The Year Round-Up The Album Of The Year category showcases a wide range of Latin musical genres from pop and merengue to vallenato and pop with samba touches all of which demonstrate the versatility of Latin artists and the diversity prized by the Latin GRAMMYs.
		Amarte Es Un Placer, nominated for Album Of The Year, was also produced by the 30-year-old Mexican-born crooner, and at this point it is clear that he couldn’t be more confident in his sound.
		Livro, his most samba-flavored album in years, is a representative sample of the work of a master.

	BBC - Music - Classic Rock & Pop - Album of the Year
		Reality is just what David Bowie said it would be an album made for playing live, and the song New Killer Star shows David Bowie continues to rock and create new songs that earn their place in his amazing cannon of music even at the age of 56yrs old.
		He deserves best album because it is the best and he has proven he is one of the best ever,another classic.
		Reality is the Album of the Year - real music, by real talent and musical genious, really great live too, energy and passion, variety of styles and range yet unmistakably David Bowie.

	Album of the year - Out and About
		His criticism of G-Unit may be what he is most remembered for in 2005, but The Game should also be given credit for one of the best albums of the year.
		Much hype initially surrounded The Documentary, mainly for the fact the Compton native was working with one of the most renowned producers in rap, Dr. Dre.
		The Documentary was released in January, but as the end of the year approaches, many songs from the CD are still blaring in the club and repeating on the radio.

	The Music Box: The Good Life - Album of the Year (Album Review)
		His latest effort Album of the Year is a conceptual piece with each of its dozen tracks signifying a calendar month that features Kasher’s romantic reflections on the season.
		Inmates, in particular, shines brightly as Kasher yields the lead vocal duties to female band-mate Jiha Lee, and as a result, the song flourishes with its nearly 10 minutes of emotional exploration and heartbreak that invokes the spirit of Rilo Kiley.
		While Album of the Year isn’t a hook-heavy pop outing, it also isn’t mere background music because Kasher’s super-smart and insightful lyrics serve as the anchor that holds this truly remarkable effort together.

	pOoTer's pSycheDelic shAcK - Album Of The Year
		There was one album that really grabbed us the first time it was played, it had so many good qualities that it was immediately put on the shortlist and that was where it stayed, virtually unchallenged.
		Not an album that can easily be compared to the band that DID get the award as both their styles of music are very different.
		The whole album was recorded and mixed in under six weeks, again all done at Graham Day's house, the exception being 'Reflections' that was recorded at Toerag in London, a popular studio for bands like the 'Flares due to it being crammed full of vintage valve gear.

		Missy is great, but this wasn't her greatest album, and I don't see the Grammy's going for a female rapper as Album of the Year.
		this year like any other, the voters will always be ignoring aritstic merit to instead appeal to popularity or attempts to appear cool (in the past it was rewarding the greats of yesteryear via their albums today ala the aforementioned Steele Dan; while this year thy are marketing their show to a younger crowd).
		Fallen by Evanesence for album of the year.

	Steely Dan upstages Eminem; gets Album of the Year (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Eminem's nomination for album of the year for "The Marshall Mathers LP" drew the most controversy.
		Jennifer Lopez, who provided the Grammys' most memorable moment last year with her navel-plunging Versace dress, was not present, but the spirit of her dress was there with Toni Braxton's eye-popping silver Richard Tyler frock.
		Over the past several years, the Grammys — criticized for ignoring artists in their time — have tried to bring the nominations in tune with critical tastes.

	TWEET - SOUTHERN HUMMINGBIRD - ALBUM OF THE YEAR 2002 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		While Tweet's "Southern Hummingbird" album is old news to most of us by now, it is a collection of work that stands up to repeated play without tiring.
		After being out a few months, it still sounds fresh and timely, which is why it gets my vote for being the album of the year, 2002.
		Yet another Gem on Southern Hummingbird is "Motel", an acoustic singer/songwriter type of ditty which follows the classic theme of a man cheating on his woman, getting caught, and having to deal with her wrath.

	plug <> Faith No More - Album of the Year
		On any given song, there's usually enough power chord crunching to keep metal enthusiasts hooked, but also enough restraint and tonal complexity to attract listeners who may not otherwise be tempted to put a track on their stereo which requires a nodding head and the de rigueur 0zzy hand salute immortalized by Beavis and Butthead.
		For the most part, this holds true on the band's new disc, "Album of the Year".
		Which is not to say that the album is a ponderous gloomfest from start to finish.

	Amazon.com: Album of the Year: Music: The Good Life (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		It is one of the few albums that is not a mere collection of songs but a true album that begs to be listened to from start to finish.
		The Good Life's Tim Kasher has some very original, inventive lyrics in the sarcastically(I hope) titled "Album Of The Year." And the words are delivered with a pure sincerity and raw emotion that you just don't see much anymore.
		The other half, however, are less than spectacular indie songs that might seem good on another album, but after being spoiled by the other tracks on this album, i find myself reaching for the skip button.

	ALBUM OF THE YEAR
		The albums of the aforementioned artists are all fabulous but only one merits a special recognition as the "1997 album of the year." It belongs to an artist whose voice, music, lyrics and quality of recording is superb and outperforms those of her fellow musicians by a wide margin.
		She is based in Toronto and her distinct voice can be easily noticed in Hussein Said's "Cab Canada" album, more specifically in "Teabide Bealey" in which she performs the back-up singing.
		She composed the music for five of the songs and wrote the lyrics of two, but her greatest strength is the powerful combination of her stupendous vocal talent and her incredibly sensual voice.

	Album Of The Year: Nine Inch Nails' The Fragile
		After five years of writer's block and solitary confinement, Trent Reznor returned with a beautifully brutal examination of a depression, disillusionment, and grudging self-acceptance.
		And Reznor, for his part, must follow one of the most publicized cases of writer's block of the decade (more than five years sine his provocative last album, The Downward Spiral) with a quick-change from studio shut-in to dramatic focal point.
		Though the album has gone platinum, the first single, "We're in This Together" never quite ruled radio or MTV, which used to rotate the leather-clad provocateur quite heavily.

		It seems that the competition for best album of the year would be harsh.
		Like past Incubus albums, the lyrics are nothing to muse over, but the manner in which he sings them are perfect for each song.

	In Music We Trust - Faith No More: Album of the Year
		"Album of the Year" falls short for a band as talented as Faith No More, but it still beats what radio typically plays.
		Don't get me wrong, the album is worth the money, but Faith No More has more or less become a side-project for these musicians at this point as opposed to the other way around.
		The album is shorter and the energy is different, but some of the songs are particularly strong.

		(who also serves as an artist/worship leader on the album), the 'Dwell' project contributes a riveting centerpiece of excellent song writing and wonderful music presentation, while remaining a thoroughly worship filled resource that is usable in the church.
		Over the past six years, WorshipMusic.com has become the world's largest non-label retailer dedicated exclusively to worship music and carries products related to worship and music in the Christian church including CD's, DVD's, videos, tracks, songbooks, books and software.

		so many albums sucked this year (what's with all this cullum/melua/whinehouse stuff - that's not jazz!) but the branford marsalis album has remained a constant fixture on my walkman for the last coupla months, so i guess that's where my vote goes.
		In terms of jazz, dave douglas' strange liberation is a fantastic album, But my favourite album of the year is probably Give by the Bad Plus.
