Favorite Albums of 2009

Today marks the last day of December, 2009, and the decade. Half of me wants to be really deep and reflective and find something crazy smart to say about the year. The other half just wants to count down my favorite albums of the year. I think I'm going to do that instead.

UPDATE: my good ol pal, Devin Cochran, put his favorite 2009 albums in a facebook note and included whether he saw them live or not. Great idea, im gonna cop dat.
