It’s nearly the end of November, and you know what that means: best of 2008 lists.
Paste Magazine has just announced its Top 50 of 2008, and at No. 1 is She & Him’s debut album Vol. 1. Paste writes of its choice: Maybe it’s just a sweet little folk record—a tiny, flawless diamond. Or maybe it’s a pristine distillation of harmony and craft; 50 years of songwriting experience served up on a spinning silver platter. Either way, it’s our album of the year. Produced with touches of girl-group splendor and arranged with a dreamy, old-fashioned vibe, She & Him’s debut couldn’t be more adorable.
The list also includes such Scenestar faves as TV On the Radio, R.E.M. and The Walkmen.
