Once every three months I list the best of what I heard in albums/songs/remixes for the quarter. I do this to personally keep up with all the awesome music I hear, as it ultimately helps me at the end of the year when I do my overall listing for the previous twelve months. I also do it to introduce you cool cats to tunes you may have missed independently.

Spring break is upon us, and with it the finest week of the year, SXSW. As is customary, my friends and I are gonna RAGE and make like Andrew W.K. and PARTY HARD and all that good stuff. New parties and showcases are being announced every day, and next week I hope to have a list of my picks for ones to check out. In the meantime, however, after the jump is a list of bands I am hoping to see this year while meandering around downtown Austin, and you should try your damndest to see them as well.

We are now a month and a half into 2011, so it’s safe to say all the best-of lists and wrapping up 2010 is done and over with. I had my own recap, as I am wont to do every year, but, as is usual, whilst going through other lists, I happened upon some albums I missed out on. Here are fifteen great albums I overlooked, and, if you did too, you should check them out.
Soft Circle – Shore Obsessed
