<Updated 03 Dec>

In my continuing spirit of stealin great ideas I figured I'd stash great albums of the year here, as they happen.
Consider it organic best-of list cultivation as opposed to the inhumane forced production of a list some time around late december when I should really be out buying my loved ones christmas presents.

So what has been knocking my upside the ear'oles so far?

Triangulation / Interpretations

Crooks & Lovers
