We posted a quick note about this on our Twitter feed, but thought we should pose it here:
There seems to be three contenders for Album of the Year so far, with an mp3 from each:
Grizzly Bear – Two Weeks (mp3) from Veckatimest
Animal Collective – My Girls (mp3) from Merriweather Post Pavilion
Dirty Projectors – Cannibal Resource (mp3) from Bitte Orca
Your thoughts? Should something else be considered?

Lost Channels by Great Lake Swimmers should be on the list

good shout castleqwayr!
i’d probably add to the list (although it’ll be hard to top Veckatimest)
Junior Boys – Begone Dull Care
Royksopp – Junior
It Hugs Back – Inside Your Guitar
80Kidz – This Is My Shit
Micachu – Jewellery
Phoenix – Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix
Wilco – Wilco (The Album) <— my personal choice for best summer album haha

I like all three of those…but album of the year = CLUES (S/T)

I think if you took all the best songs of Animal Collective and threw them together it would be an epic album. But as it is, Merriweather is a bit overrated.
I’d have to go with Grizzly Bear, Neko Case and Phoenix for my top three.

Dirty Projectors is definitely up there on my list already!
