This was another tough list to put together.  The top 5ish spots are usually pretty easy, and deciding which albums to cut in the last few spots are a struggle.  For the past month I've been going through the bajillions of best of lists. As usual there was a TON of stuff I missed.  I just have to be ok with the face that there's only 24 hours in a day and it's damn near impossible to get to everything.  Last year I made an unsuccesful attempt to catch up everything I missed, but eventually gave up and finalized my list a month or two into the new year.  This year I've drawn the line at the end of the year, and if I missed anything, then so be it.  Onward to my list!
