2008 Listravaganza!

An absolute glut of cruelly reductive Top 10 lists from our dedicated staff of tirelessly enthusiastic writers

Peter Bjorn and John | Seaside Rock

Almost Gold/Star Time | 2008

Young Jeezy | The Recession

Def Jam
Remember, Jeezy disdains rappers, just like the teen movie anti-hero who decries the phoniness of movie stars.

Friendly Fires

Friendly Fires | XL

As the first non-shitty half-hour-long song of the millennium, the title track and centerpiece marks a milestone of sorts.

Black Kids
