Favorite new music album released in 2006

Yes, it might be 2/12ths into the new year, but why the heck not do it now?

What's your favorite new music album from 2006?

Mine, which I finally got my hands on a few weeks ago, is:

Jay Reatard - Blood Visions

Mr. Reatard is of Reatards, Lost Sounds fame and the sound is somewhere around the punk/garage genre. The dude has talent and the tracks on his MySpace page don't do him justice. Blood Visions has some incredible tracks. Then again, I'm a simple man, and I enjoy myself some simplified punk rock.

If you've got a favorite album from 2006, let us know. It doesn't matter if it's rock, hip-hop, norteño, or whatever. Make sure to tell us you it's your favorite and please don't say because Carson Daly made it #1 on TRL.

Rise Against "The Sufferer and the Witness"

This band's earlier stuff sounds like all the other modern punk out there (with the exception of "Swing Life Away"), but this album is really good, complex, awesome lyrics great songwriting. Try "Prayer for the Refugee" and "Worth Dying For."

There was a lot of talk about how good that new Mastadon album is, but I can't get into it. When it comes to metal, I guess I'm stuck in junior high, when it was all Pendeltons, Red Wings and the big four - Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth and Anthrax.

The King Khan & BBQ Show: What's for Dinner?

Some of the rawest, coolest, catchiest rock-n-roll out nowadays. Two guys who only give a fuck about making kickass music and leave out all false bullshit pretenses. The record has a cover of "Operation" by the Circle Jerks, which also rocks.

The best way to describe it is Ritchie Valens meets Chuck Berry which meets Black Flag and the Circle Jerks.

That Jay Reatard record is pretty good too.
