I'm glad to say that I didn't know any of these albums existed before reading this list. Hooray for ignoring non-essential things!

I'm really surprised to see no mention of Dr. Dog anywhere on the ballots or in the comments. Did everyone forget they put out one of their best records this year? Anyway, my personal top 10.

I'm only 26 and I'm still not a big fan of anything on this list. I honestly think Paste did a better job of putting together a year-end list this year. Where's Killer Mike? El-P? The Lumineers? Dr. Dog? All of these artists had absolutely amazing albums this year.

Oh man, thanks for linking to this. As a nerdy white guy with an affinity for hip hop who wants to understand all of the references, I am very familiar with the Rap Genius subculture. Although this is the first time I have seen an artist explain their own lyrics. That is hilarious. Can't wait for the videos to upload.
