    That's a given. They're practically standard issue here.

    According to Last.FM the top 10 albums of 2008:
    http://www.last.fm/bestof/2008

    10. Sigur Ros - Međ suđ í eyrum viđ spilum endalaust
    9. Jack Johson – Sleep Through the Static
    8. Hot Chip – Made in the Dark
    7. Death Cab for Cutie – Narrow Stairs
    6. The Kooks – Konk
    5. The Ting Tings – We Started Nothing
    4. Nine Inch Nails – Ghost I-IV
    3. Portishead – Third
    2. MGMT – Oracular Spectacular
    1. Coldplay - Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends


    I personally feel that Ghost I-IV numbers are artificially inflated due to the length of the collection. Just listening to the whole thing once gives them 25 plays.

    I really have no idea who IL DIVO are (some kind of Italian boy band or something?), but Duffy is another pop singer, in the vein of Amy Winehouse or Adele, with a kind of R'n'B throwback sound.
