Yes, I too have a list of my top ten albums from last year. I, however, am far too indolent to state why I enjoy them so much. Here’s hoping you’ll check them out anyway. Just because I’m apathetic doesn’t mean that you should be! (In my defense, I’m on vacation in Idaho.)

TEN

Maybeshewill – Not for Want of Trying

NINE

The Mountain Goats – Heretic Pride

EIGHT

Ratatat – LP3

SEVEN

Coldplay – Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends

SIX

The Dodos – Visiter

FIVE

Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground – Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground

FOUR

Guillemots – Red

THREE

Sigur Rós – Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust

TWO

Electric President – Sleep Well

ONE

Cloud Cult – Feel Good Ghosts (Tea-Partying Through Tornadoes)

Here’s hoping for a 2009 chock-full o’ rad music. Sorry for the lack of preview tracks, but I feel like it’d have to be all or nothing, and I’m not really into shoving ten preview tracks into this post.
