So the year is winding down and magazines and such are making their year-end lists which got me thinking about what albums I have liked this year. Here is a list of albums in contention that I could remember with help from wikikipedia. They are in "qwerty" order (seriously) because I started off the narrowing process by typing letters into strereogum's "gummy" nomination page. Please let me know if you think there is anything I missed, by omission, or that I may not have given a chance.

of the albums I listened to A Kid Named Cudi beats out Mixtape About Nothing as the best 10 Deep Collab mixtape, In Rainbows is the best rock album, C3 edges Tronic as the best rap album, and 808's and Heartbreak is the best of the Pop Art genre
