SSv’s Exciting Year-End Content

It’s the end of another year here at Stereo Subversion, which means the predictable year-end material. But we wanted to do things a bit differently this year, partially to look at the decade behind us and also to introduce a new level of insight here at SSv. We really have some incredible writers on staff and we’re excited to unveil some of their thoughts and analysis on the music both behind and ahead.

With that said, starting with Jonathan Scott’s fantastic piece on the death of Indie Rock – Indie Rock, R.I.P. 2005 – we are beginning to take a closer look back at our decade. We have a closer look coming at various bands – from Broken Social Scene helping to define the musical collective to the intricate, baffling, yet courageous work of Sufjan Stevens – as well as takes on the supposed Garage Rock Revival and the the Bluegrass renewal that came this decade with O Brother, Where Art Thou?

After that, we’ll take a look at our favorite albums in several genres – from the Top 11 Hip-Hop Albums in 2009 to the same in Folk, Pop and Rock. Josh Hurst gives us the best Jazz albums this year. And of course, what look back over the decade could fail to include a glimpse at Radiohead’s pioneering efforts?

So we have lots ahead. And we hope you’ll come back. The trend will continue into the new year as we continue to analyze the world in which we live, the music providing the soundtrack and the beauty of it coming together.
