Come the end of the year...
...DiS will again be offering readers the chance to vote for their album of the year. We'll provide a shortlist, selected by DiS writers, and then it's over to you.
At present our shortlist isn't very short at all... to give you an idea of the sort of acts/albums likely to ferature - perhaps - below is what we've got to pick 40 or 50 from, SO FAR. It is only August after all.
I've only just noticed that not one writer has suggested Arctic Monkeys...
