Keeping it short this week, since I'm running around like a crazy person trying to tie up all my loose ends before I leave the Beacon-News for good. This week's tm3am column dissects the posthumous Michael Jackson album, Michael, and takes a look at the first great album of 2011, Over the Rhine's The Long Surrender.
But the main event is my annual list of honorable mentions, albums that are worth hearing and worth buying, but for whatever reason, not quite good enough to make my top 10 list. That list is coming next week, and will signify the end of 2010, one of the best music years in recent memory.
But that's next week. For now, click on over to read this week's column, and then head back here to leave me a comment.

Holy crap, Long Surrender is a great record. How can a band just keep getting better and better like this? Got to be some law of physics that forbids it.
