Recommended Music

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I've been mega busy. I'm graduating in less than three weeks (yay!), but I still have two massive journalism projects to finish before then, and I will also be increasing my hours at EW. So, things are going to be pretty hectic to say the least.

As for music, a third of 2008 is over, and I've yet to mention any of the albums that I've been digging. Thus, in an attempt to correct this oversight, here are my six favorite albums of the year so far:
