Albums Of The Year?
December 08, 2008

I feel I might have to cheat and choose 20 albums for 2008. I'm having to much trouble narrowing it down to 10 from the 72 [at last count] that I've listened to this year. To give you some idea of what I'm pondering, these are the artists I'm talking about...

Adele, Amadou & Mariam, Autechre, Be Your Own Pet, Benga, Black Kids, Black Mountain, Bon Iver, The Bug, Cage The Elephant, Cat Power, Crystal Castles, Cut Copy, Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip, Deerhunter, Toumane Diabate, Duffy, Elbow, El Guincho, The Feeling, Fleet Foxes, Flying Lotus, Foals, The Fratellis, Fuck Buttons, Gang Gang Dance, Glasvegas, The Glimmers, Gnarls Barkley, The Gutter Twins, Hercules & Love Affair, High Places, Hot Chip, Jay Reatard, Joan As Police Woman, Josh Gabriel, Juana Molina, Kanye West, Kelley Polar, The Killers, Kings Of Leon, Ladyhawke, The Last Shadow Puppets, Late Of The Pier, Laura Marling, M83, Madonna, Martha Wainwright, Metronomy, MGMT, The Mountain Goats, Neon Neon, No Age, Nortec Collective, Pendulum, Pete & The Pirates, Portishead, The Presets, The Raconteurs, Santogold, Sebastien Tellier, Shearwater, The Shortwave Set, Sigur Ros, Sonny J, Spiritualized, The Ting Tings, TV On The Radio, The Verve, Vivian Girls and 2652.

Which 10 would you choose from that list? I'll let you know what my conclusions are before the year is through.
