| Albums Of 2008.
I enjoy all these albums, but I really don't think I can rate them due to a lack of time spent with most of them. It would be unfair to rate since I haven't heard them as much I need to. | 1 | | Bon Iver For Emma, Forever Ago
This is probably my number 1 anyway. It's so heartbreaking and reminds me of the book 1984 (Probably because I was reading it while listening to the CD). Favorite Track: Wolves (Part 1 & 2) | 2 | | Girl Talk Feed The Animals
It's pretty self explanatory how much of an ear Gillis has for music and composition. Favorite Track: Play Your Part Pt. 1 | 3 | | Loma Prieta Last City
If the end of Trilogy 1 doesn't rip into you, I'm not sure what will. Favorite Track: Trilogy 1 (Sick Cities) | 4 | | Maps and Atlases You and Me and The Mountain
Favorite Track: You & Me & The Mountain | 5 | | Lil Wayne Tha Carter III
Favorite Track: Mr. Carter | 6 | | TV on the Radio Dear Science
It took me awhile to understand what was so good about certain songs like "Golden Age" and "DLZ", but with repeated listens and attention to detail, this record hits pretty hard. Favorite Track: Family Tree | 7 | | MGMT Oracular Spectacular
Favorite Track: Electric Feel | 8 | | Moving Mountains Pneuma
Would probably be in my Top 10 (It's a reissue, by the way). Good mixture of Pop-Punk and Post-Rock. Favorite track: 8105 | 9 | | Pygmy Lush Mount Hope
Favorite Track: Dead Don't Pass | 10 | | United Nations United Nations
Favorite Track: Filmed In Front Of A Live Studio Audience | |
