Used Kids Staff Year End Lists 2014

It's that time of the year again, and we would be remiss if we didn't partake in the ubiquitous music nerd annual ritual of letting the world know what we think about certain things. So... here are our unsolicited opinions-- which *mind you* are not the byproduct of promos or butt-rubbing on the behalf of slimy label sales-reps. No SIR-- these are the records that we have spent our hard earned ducats on, and want you, beloved reader-- to know about. Let it be documented, for better or worse (in 3 years time, some of us might really regret these choices!) that these are the records that have reverberated through the echoey chambers of 1980 N. High in the year 2014.
