Best Thus Far

Paste has a round-up of their favorite albums at the year's midpoint. Lots of good things on these lists--Phosphorescent, Frightened Rabbit, Thao, Vampire Weekend, Laura Marling, the National, Jim James, Deerhunter, Kurt Vile, Iron & Wine, and several others I cannot count pop up. Lots to choose from and a few ones to hopefully fall for.
