Overlooked in 2009: 3. Loxsly – “Tomorrow’s Fossils”

I’ve decided to list 25 albums that will get shafted/overlooked on this 2009′s Best Albums of the Year Lists.

Check back each day for a new addition to the list. (no particular order)

3. Loxsly – Tomorrow’s Fossils

mp3: Loxsly – “Lamprey Eels”

With Tomorrow’s Fossils, Loxsly has recorded a brilliant scientific concept album that doesn’t just hint at the genius of influences like Grandaddy, Flaming Lips and Wilco, it actually measures up to them. It’s a fully realized record that doesn’t get overly lost in the overwhelming task of being a concept album. The songs function just fine on their own, but only when combined as a whole can they really be fully appreciated, flowing perfectly. The pedal steel is the ultimate weapon, but all the parts are contributing something interesting at every moment.
