Onion A/V Club doles out its Year In Music (Loon State Edition). Local editor guy Chris Bahn boldly places The Hold Steady at #2, even though none of the members live here. Other entries include Vicious Vicious, Revolver Modele, Soviettes, Halloween Alaska, Atmosphere, Low, and others.

I think Chris Bahn has come up with a good list here, and The Hold Steady still feels more local to me than say Motion City Soundtrack, despite the obvious zip code discrepancies.

This list doesn’t seem to different from the the top ten best selling albums of the twin cities scene a whole lot.
