Tiny Mix Tapes' list (http://www.tinymixtapes.com/2008-Tiny-Mix-Tapes-Favorite)


Deerhunter at #1 is a head-scratcher and I thought that Music Tapes album was awful. Solid list otherwise, though.

Boomkat's top 100 (http://www.boomkat.com/charts.cfm?id=432&gID=9)


I've probably listened to close to 500 albums this year and there's still so much I haven't heard.

Doesn't listening to so many different albums prevent you from having time to properly enjoy the good ones? I probably listened to more new albums than ever this year, but feel like I haven't really spent enough time with any of them.
