Annuals- Such Fun
Dear and the Headlights- Drunk Like Bible Times
Electric President- Sleep Well
Frightened Rabbit- Midnight Organ Fight

Wow...someone else knows about Electric President. I pick Vampire Weekend, but you get indie points.

Went with Good Old War.
So did I.

I find Vampire Weekend to be unbelievably overrated. Sorry to all VW fans.

I tried to give Vampire Weekend a chance, didn't work.

i put them in there as i saw them in 2007, supporting the shins and they were really good and i did enjoy the album but probably the worst on that list for me.

also someone asked about fleet foxes, i just could never get into them.

well, Fleet Foxes' self titled won 2008 Album of the Year for me. but since i had to choose from this list i went with Good Old War.

why don't i have ANY of these records? :-0

i think i spent too much time on A Band In Hope and Razia's Shadow and Illuminate and Shudder. Seriously. I can only name so-so number of releases, dated 2008.

My favorite though was Lydia - Illuminate, and Death Cab - Narrow Stairs

i was gonna but death cab's narrow stairs but it was such a huge disappointment that i couldn't. it's probably their worst (or 2nd worst after plans...can't decide)

Good Old War, far and away. That album is nothing short of spectacular.
