Pretty eclectic. Nice! However, for such a comprehensive list, you left off Five Roses from Miracle Fortress.
Check it out if you haven't already ...and if you have, why didn't it make your list?
Just asking.

what, no MIKA?! the list is really good, though. looking through it, i didn't realize how many great albums came out this year that i myself have obsessed over.

One of the best Top 2007 lists I've seen on any blog. Bravo! Personal favs: Amy Winehouse and Feist. Did you see their London Live performances on MOJOHD.com?

Deerhunter are an interesting choice. I salute you for that one.

Pretty good list, except for one glaring omission...The White Stripes "Icky Thump," one of the greatest albums I have heard in recent years

The White Stripes - "Icky Thump" actually came in at #22 on this list.
