HALFWAY & HALF-ASSED

Some of the following LPs haven’t come out yet, there’s a bunch of highly touted records I haven’t heard, like Fleet Foxes, and I haven’t spent enough time with several of these to feel confident that they’ll be on my year-end list. So this is an inherently flawed midyear Top 12, but it’s the best I can do right now.

Coldplay, Viva La Vida
Death Cab for Cutie, Narrow Stairs
Robin Danar, Altered States
Duffy, Rockferry
The Explorer's Club, Freedom Wind
John Mellencamp, Life, Death, Love and Freedom
Mudcrutch, Mudcrutch
My Morning Jacket, Evil Urges
Pictures And Sound, Pictures And Sound
The Raconteurs, Consolers of the Lonely
Matthew Sweet, Sunshine Lies
Teddy Thompson, A Piece of What You Need
