It's that time again. Instructions:

List your top five albums of the year. Any albums as long as they were released in 2008. Put them in order if you're that way inclined and #1 will score 5 points, #2 will score 4 points etc. If you can't/won't put them in order they'll all score 3 points. I'll total up all the points to find the DiSers top 50 albums of the year. Feel free to list more than five albums but note only the first five you list will score points.

I know it's still only 4th December so I'll leave this open until January if you feel you need to give albums that have just been released/will be released in December a fair go. As is the tradition, I'll go first:

1) The Gutter Twins - Saturnalia
2) My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges
3) Angus & Julia Stone - A Book Like This
4) Sun Kil Moon - April
5) Portishead - Third
