Ok, so here it is as promised, part 2 of my fantastic best albums of 2008 poll!

64 albums were nominated in the first stage, and going over the nominations i can still think of other albums that came out this year that didn't impress anyone enough to earn them a place in this extremely important list!

So what I need from you in this mid-way stage is simple. have a look through the list below, these are the 64 albums you nominated. Check the little box on ALL the albums you have heard and enjoyed this year. It doesn't matter if you didn't nominate them initially, it doesn't matter if they're not in your top ten for the year, Tick as many as you like. Also, it not too late to get your friends involved. and this stage is anonymous as well, so you can admit to liking the Ting Tings and everything!

Now I'm not sure how the facebook note importer is going to deal with a poll, so you may need to come here - http://roy-dcour.livejournal.com/65684.html

I want to say thank you to the person who suggested Kraak & Smaak as I got the album on this poll's recommendation and it's ace!

It was nominated by both my flatmate Dan and myself, i'm the only one who's ticked it in the poll tho because apparently you have to have a LJ account to take part in polls.

Thank for your comment too, it's made this whole thing worth while to know that it's introducing people to good new music!
