Here it is, I finally made it! Unlike the past few years, I’m only doing ten records instead of twenty-five and this Wednesday, December 17, I’ll do a countdown of them on 90.3 The Core at 10pm!

I should say that this isn’t necessarily a list of what I think the best records were, but these are the records I listened to the most and that stuck with me throughout the year. I mistakenly named Murder By Death’s record as an early pick for album of the year way back in February, but it ended up dropping down to fifth.

At any rate, check back soon as I’ll be doing other top 10 lists for 2008!

1. Gaslight Anthem – The ’59 Sound
2. She And Him – Volume One
3. The Hold Steady – Stay Positive
4. The Steinways – Gorilla Marketing
5. Murder By Death – Red Of Tooth And Claw
6. The Bridges – Limits Of The Sky
7. Mason Proper – Olly Oxen Free
8. Tom Gabel – Heart Burns
9. Conor Oberst – Conor Oberst
10. Amanda Palmer – Who Killed Amanda Palmer
