Tim's Top Ten Albums of 2008

Figuring it would be pretty easy to beat the rush and be the first with a list of 2008's best albums, a mid-October post seemed be pretty safe. Sadly with the impending demise of the fine site Paper Thin Walls and their Best of 2008 post slated for tomorrow, the list had to happen now. Seriously though, it'll be hard for any future release to bust into this Ten. It's locked up tight! Here goes in no particular order and because of time constraints, no witty comments either.
