The Blot’s Favorite Albums of 2007

So instead of dragging out my favorite albums of 2007 into 2008, I thought it better to wrap it up so I can move on to more interesting stories circulating around the web. Therefore, in no particular order, here are more of The Blot’s Favorite Albums from 2007 that you should check out and give a listen!

As I stated earlier I’m not including the obvious selections like Kanye West’s Graduation or The Polyphonic Spree’s The Fragile Army. If you haven’t picked up those two albums yet nothing I say is going to get you moving. Instead, I’m focusing on some great albums that haven’t gotten the publicity they deserve. And yes I know some of these artists were on SNL this year, but let’s be honest who’s watching Saturday Night Live anymore? I’ve gone ahead and listed the label and type of music underneath each artist in case you’d like some additional information on each artist before heading out to check out each musician’s website. Do some surfing and enjoy…
