What are the good albums from this year? Post them in the thread and maybe say why they're good/put up a clip so I can check them out without having to try. I'll put them on a list that will allow us to observe the fragmented nature of the music industry in the 21st century. If there are any consensus picks (consensusish... if 3 or more people think the same thing is good) I'll make a Hall of Fame list at the top to highlight them.
