music and movies play a big role in my life. i'm sure i missed several albums and movies i thought were gems back in january or so but here are my top tens for '08.

top ten albums of '08:
1.
frightened rabbit
- the midnight organ fight
2.bon iver - for emma forever ago
3.city and colour - bring me your love
4.the gaslight anthem - the '59 sound
5.vampire weekend - vampire weekend
6.nada surf - lucky
7.fleet foxes - fleet foxes
8.mgmt - oracular spectacular
9.cloud cult - feel good ghosts
10.sigur ros - meo...

honorary mentions to: kings of leon's only by the night, not for being their best album but for finally breaking them into the mainstream , which may or may not be a good thing, probably not, but cudos to them anyway.
to: coldplay's prospek march for being the lp to viva la vida and being the better album
to: ryan adams...just for living another year. cardinology was aiight.


please let me know who i forgot, as this was all off the top of my head this afternoon.

top ten movies of 08 will be added later, or not, depends on if i feel like it.
