Choosing a top 100 records of 2009 may seem a little excessive but it has been a fucking awesome year for music.  No question.  We’ve mixed together albums, singles and individual tracks in our list, because we can. 

The first batch is our top 100-81 and even though they’re at the lower reaches of our countdown, they’re all still amazing.  We stand by every single record in the whole 100 and encourage you to check out, purchase and enjoy our recommended releases of this year.
