in the spirit of the end of the year, and because josh and dave asked me the day that i left and i didn't really give them an answer, here is my album list of 2008. in no specific order.
top ten :
Atlas Sound - let the blind lead those who can see but cannot feel
Joan As Policewoman - To Survive
Wild Beasts - Limbo, Panto
TV On The Radio - Dear Science
Fleet Foxes - Self Titled
Hercules and Love Affair - Self Titled
Erykah Badu - New Amerykah
Vampire Weekend - Self Titled
Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
Deerhunter - Microcastle/Weird Era Cont.
but also :
Jamie Lidell - Jim
Department of Eagles - In Ear Park
Beach House - Devotion
Pivot - O Soundtrack My Heart
The Roots - Rising Down
Titus Andronicus - The Airing of Grievances
and most importantly : the albums not released but discovered in 2008 (and ultimately my favourite albums this year)
Smog - A River Ain't Too Much To Love
Bill Callahan - Woke On A Whaleheart
i know that's actually a lot of music and i haven't really committed myself to any one album in particular. i'm sure if i was really forced i could name one but i don't have to and you can't make me. so long 2008, bring on 2009.
