favorite albums of 2008

It’s that time again, time to make an ongoing, editable list of my top CDs of 2008. Here’s a quick breakdown of star ratings and whatnot:

The number of stars (out of 5) represents a couple of things: how much I enjoy the album, how much I listen to it, and how good I feel that it is overall. All of these go into determining the “rating”. If something tanked rating wise, just know that it didn’t click well with me for whatever reason.

Now that the formalities are out of the way, let’s get to the list of the CDs, shall we??
