Welcome to the annual “Top Albums of the Year” list. As I expected, 2009 was an amazing year for music. Putting together this list was much harder than I anticipated.

I will admit it took me a little while to embrace Regina Spektor. Not only is the cover of her last album Soviet Kitsch probably the worst cover of the new millennium,:
