Nurses' albums of the decade

Nurses' albums of the decade

We decided to compile a list of our favorite records rather than a list of the bests... These are records that had a huge impact on our lives and we still listen to pretty regularly.

1. Modest Mouse - The Moon & Antarctica

Solid and totally immersive from start to finish, and maybe one of the most life-changing records of adolescence. Somehow this record penetrated the culture-proof bubble of idaho falls and was the soundtrack to often bizarre high-school years. it still makes me feel comfortably lonely. 

2. Radiohead - Kid A

In 1000 years, this record will still sound like it's from the future.  

3. The Arcade Fire - Funeral

I remember laughing when i first heard this record. It was so good i just started laughing, and then i was moved. One of the most earnest, passionate sounding records I've ever heard. 

4. The Microphones ; The Glow Pt. 2

One of the most emotionally intense, charming, and innovative folk albums I know of, and my personal soundtrack to the Pacific Northwest. 

5. Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

Such good songwriting that it hit me right away but the record is still growing on me. Definitely defines more than one period of my life. 

6. Mum - Summer Make Good

A dark, immensely beautiful, un-classifiable record that creates its own strange world that just feels so good. 

7. Micachu And The Shapes - Jewellery

Definitely my favorite record of the year. Seeing the live show really solidified my interest in this group. Super talented, dynamic, and interesting! 

8. Evangelicals - The Evening Descends

A record i wish more people knew- definitely one of the most underrated albums of the decade. it's dense, rich, and interesting, and completely draws you in to their world. there's even a quasi-skit, i love a skit! 

9. Liars - Drums Not Dead

Just when i thought there couldn't be a better record to listen to alone, at night, in the woods in october than "they were wrong so we drowned"...  

10. Animal Collective - Sung Tongs

This record seems at the same time completely spontaneous and super well thought out.
