CITC Staff Writer
I find coming up with a "best of" for anything quite difficult, but selecting my top albums for the year proved particularly challenging. That said, I decided to make the task even more difficult by rating both my obsessions: music and movies. The following are my favorites for the year:
Top Five 2008 Albums
1. Sigur Ros--Med Sud I Eyrum Vid Spilum Endalaust
2. Of Montreal--Skeletal Lamping
3. Fleet Foxes--Fleet Foxes
4. Vampire Weekend--Vampire Weekend
5. Flight of the Conchords--Flight of the Conchords
Top Five 2008 Movies
1. Wall-E
2. Vicky Christina Barcelona
3. The Dark Knight
4. In Bruges
5. Hamlet 2
