Albums of the Year

Who doesn't love a good list? You can read the whole 'Year in Music' post, along with commentary on each pick, over at Pomp Culture (I'm Chaim Witz if you didn't know), but if you're too lazy or simply don't care, here is a quick and dirty rundown of my favorite albums of 2008. I'll have my movie list ready in a week or so, and I'll make Katy fill out one too. Gotta cram a few more in before I'm ready. That's what she said.

4. Guns N Roses - Chinese Democracy

5. Tapes N Tapes - Walk It Off

6. Motley Crue - Saints of Los Angeles

7. Eagles of Death Metal - Heart On
