January 2011

In this post I list the best of the Best of 2010 Blalock's indie/rock playlist. This playlist really had some great songs, so I kept listening to it through the whole January. Here's my favourites divided up in three categories, and as you can see, January was more feel good than emo - generally one of my main goals of January. And I succeeded!
