About this time a year ago, I posted my favorite albums of 2010. Looking at my Top 10 from last year, it’s pretty amazing to think about how they compare to this year. I’m not sure if it’s simply the quality of what’s been released in 2011…or maybe it’s how attached I became to the music…but my favorite albums THIS year seem to be of a much higher caliber. My 2011 list will be up on the 1st of the year!

1. Vampire Weekend – Contra
