Flatlander got his list destroyed by the RIAA. Let me see if I can sidestep big brother a bit and get my favorites out to you. These aren't strictly releases from the previous year, but do represent my 9 heavy listens in the year of 08.

The Beast
Sera Cahoone - Only as the Day is Long

Heard them Stirring
Delta Spirit - Ode to Sunshine

The Dodos - Visiter

Fools

I didn't make a list, but if I had Bon Iver and Wye Oak would have been on it, too.
great list! one questions though -- the Wye Oak song is (I'm pretty sure) called If Children Were Wishes, not If Children Were Wolves, though that could be an equally compelling song title.
Great list -- always loving the blog and have been reading for years so don't let the assholes get you down!!
