I don't know if the Onion's AV Club has put out a year end list before, but here it is!
http://www.avclub.com/content/node/56476
1. The Hold Steady, Boys And Girls In America
2. TV On The Radio, Return To Cookie Mountain
3. Midlake, The Trials Of Van Occupanther
4. Jenny Lewis With The Watson Twins, Rabbit Fur Coat
5. Belle & Sebastian, The Life Pursuit
6. Ghostface Killah, Fishscale
7. The Decemberists, The Crane Wife
8. The Coup, Pick A Bigger Weapon
9. Neko Case, Fox Confessor Brings The Flood
10. Band Of Horses, Everything All The Time
11. Rhymefest, Blue Collar
12. The Thermals, The Body The Blood The Machine
13. Mew, And The Glass Handed Kites
14. Make Believe, Of Course
15. The Dears, Gang Of Losers
16. Lupe Fiasco, Food and Liquor
17. Phoenix, It's Never Been Like That
18. Ricardo Villalobos, Fizheuer Zieheuer
19. Cold War Kids, Robbers & Cowards
20. Scott Walker, The Drift

22. Califone, Roots & Crowns
23. Pernice Brothers, Live A Little
24. The Black Keys, Magic Potion
25. Destroyer, Destroyer's Rubies
This is my first published list I've put up on this forum so I hope the format is clear. There's a group top 25 listing followed by individual lists at the link, so the first one will work out.
iTunes Music Store also has a Critics Choice top 100 albums and songs list, but I've only been able to access it through the iTunes player and it is not as easy to cut and paste.
Good list. I'm glad The Hold Steady are finally getting some love. I find it odd I agree with the fake news list more than any of the real news lists I've seen so far.
