Top albums for the first half of 2007

July 2 is the midpoint of the year, so we though It'd be nice to do a little review of what we've loved so far. Let me tell you, black is THE color for albums this year. In no order:

Rufus Wainwright - Release the Stars


Patrick Wolf - The Magic Position


The National - Boxer


Wilco - Sky Blue Sky


Andrew Bird - Armchair Apocrypha


Of Montreal - Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?

In Jess' words: "OF FUCKING MONTREAL (best album of the year)!!!!" 'nuff said!
