Top 10 Albums of 2008

Beck - Modern Guilt
Beck’s new album, Modern Guilt was co-produced by Danger Mouse and features Cat Power’s backing vocals on two of the tracks. It would have been nice to hear a girl at the forefront of a song or two, but Beck apparently doesn’t want to relinquish the microphone.
