¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I must admit, I haven't really been listening to much from this year. The main albums from 2008 I've been listening to are:

Chase & Status (more than a lot)
Mogwai (The Hawk Is Howling)
The Mars Volta (The Bedlam in Goliath)
N.E.R.D. (Seeing sounds)
Sickboy (Time to play)

So what have you lot been listening to that's stood out this year?
 
sigur rós - með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust
mates of state - re-arrange us

Albums I' looking forward too next year: Silversun Pickups - Swoon. If they can beat their debut, it's going to be one awesome album.
 
Boyce Avenue - All You're Meant To Be
Safetysuit - Safetysuit
On A Dead Machine - Vol 2 stop thief
Anberlin - New Surrender
Poets Of The Fall - Revolution Roulette
10 Years - Division
City & Colour - Bring Me Your Love

Sylosis - Conclusion Of An Age (I cant harp on about these guys enough, best Metal album I've bought this yr, easily)
Testament - The Formation Of Damnation
Metallica - DM
Trivium - Shogun
Knights Of The Abyss - Shades
 
Elbow's The Seldom Seen Kid is probably my favourite album released this year, I have come accross a few other bits and pieces that were released a few years back that are great, such as Moby's Hotel and some Zero 7 stuff.
 
"TV on the Radio - Dear Science," is the album of the year for me, by some way.

Then in no particular order;

Hercules And Love Affair - Hercules And Love Affair
Sia - Some People Have Real Problems
The Cool Kids - Bake Sale

...to be honest, ignoring Dear Science the majority of my new albums listened to this year have been those that were released sometime last year (don't know if we're allowed those :p) - particularly Pharoahe Monch's "Desire".
 
I'm ashamed.

Coldplay - Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends.
Last Shadow Puppets - Age Of The Understatement.
The Subways - All Or Nothing.
 
NIN - The Slip and Ghosts I-IV
Coldplay - Viva La Vida..
Metallica - Death Magnetic
Celldweller - Soundtrack for the Voices in my Head
Blue Stahli - Antisleep Volume 1
:Wumpscut: - Schadling
Opeth - Watershed
Demians - Building an Empire
 
Julian Cope - Black Sheep
Venetian Snares - Detrimentalist
The Bug - London Zoo
Half Man Half Biscuit - CSI Ambleside
The Fall - Industrial Wax Solvent
OhGr - Devil In My Details

with Industrial Wax Solvent probably being my favourite of these.
