Top 10 Albums of 2008

10) She and Him - Volume One
9) Frightened Rabbit - Midnight Organ Fight
8) Rosebuds - Life Like
7) TV on the Radio - Dear Science,
6) Hold Steady - Stay Positive
5) Mountain Goats - Heretic Pride
4) Okervil River - The Stand-ins
3) Dodos - Visiter
2) Helio Sequence - Keep your eyes ahead
1) Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever ago

I feel like there were plenty of good albums this year, but very few, if any, great ones. In fact, I'd say any of the top 6 from my recently updated list from last year would probably top this list. Except for Bon Iver which became my pretty clear choice for the top spot as I re-listened to these albums over the last few weeks, I honestly feel like you could put the rest of the list in any order and I wouldn't argue. In fact, I just went back and fiddled with it some more as I'm typing this. OK, I'm stopping now. Check back for TV and movie lists in the coming days.
