Top 10 Albums Of 2008 (so far)


1.  BLACK TAJ - Beyonder
Southern fried indie rock featuring 2 members of Polvo.


2.  FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS - Flight Of The Conchords
Good and funny songs from the New Zealand duo from their HBO comedy show.


3.  NO AGE - Nouns

Second album from LA noise rockers.


4.  DRIVE-BY TRUCKERS - Brighter Than Creation's Dark
Another solid album of Southern rock from the Athens, GA band.


5.  FLEET FOXES - Fleet Foxes
Claire told me about these guys from Seattle. Recommend if you like My Morning Jacket and Band Of Horses.


6.  HAYDEN - In Field & Town
Hayden's music is a little more "happy" than his previous work but still great music from the Canadian. 


7.  THIS WILL DESTROY YOU - This Will Destroy You

These instrumentalists from Texas sound just like Explosions In The Sky and that is a good thing in my book.


8.  ATLAS SOUND - Let The Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel
Solo project from the Atlanta, GA singer of Deerhunter.


9. LIL WAYNE - Tha Carter III
The album cover alone is great.


10.  VAMPIRE WEEKEND - Vampire Weekend
I'm sick of this album but there is no denying the infectiousness of this Afro-pop flavored album.
