Now you can hear The A.V. Club's best music of 2011 (plus Spotify playlists from our music writers)

So you've had a day to absorb our best music of 2011 list and all the lists our writers submitted. Now let's get to the good part: the actual music. Spotify users can head here to sample songs from all of out best-of selections (with apologies to Iceage and The Weeknd, who aren't on Spotify). Several of our writers have also compiled their own lists of favorite 2011 songs for your listening pleasure, including Josh Modell, Keith Phipps, Kyle Ryan, Steven Hyden, Genevieve Koski, Marcus Gilmer, Eric Harvey, and Christian Williams. If you have your own Spotify lists, please share them with fellow readers (and us) in the comments section.
