Top 50 Albums: 40-36
40. Adam Lambert - For Your Entertainment
Behold! Only album from a season 8th contestant on my list. That's not me hating on Kris or Allison since I generally liked their albums, this is just one that caught my attention a little bit more. This fact is kinda surprising, even to me considering I really didn't like Adam on Idol, but well his music is actually pretty damn good. Only thing that bugs me is Dr. Luke producing a carbon copy of Sam Sparrow's "Black And Gold" for a first single, but that's not really Adam's fault I guess.

39. Neon Indian - Psychic Chasm
This album is seriously such a great chill album. The mostly lo-fi production makes the album seems very retro and easily listenable. The vocals, however sparce they may be just work. Overall, I know this album helped me out when it came to studying but I can still blast it on my iPod and just chill out wherever.

38. Just Jack - All Night Cinema
I've been a pretty big JJ fan for a while, his last album "Overtones" was actually one of my favorites back in 2007, so needless to say when I heard he was releasing another one this year, I was excited. While this album doesn't exactly live up to his past release, it is by no means bad. In fact, it's actually quite good. There's an amazing mix of songs, pretty much something for everyone.

37. Kid Cudi - Man On The Moon: The End Of The Day
Anyone that knows me can tell you, I'm not a HUGE fan of rap, but even I have to stop and listen when someone tries to do something different in the genre. This is what Kid Cudi accomplished with this album, something different. The different themes on his album are actually quite refreshing, and having the entire thing narrated by Common just adds a little extra touch of special. So for those of you, who like me, got sick of "Day N Night" and never gave this album a shot, I strongly urge you to do so. Like me, you'll be in for a pleasent surprise.

36. Dragonette - Fixin To Thrill
Dragonette were always an interesting band, the vocals admitedly aren't for everyone but if it's your cup of tea, they provide for some very awesome electropoprock. Seems like it's the sound everyone's going for now, but they've been doing this for a bit. I don't know what else to say, the album is full of catchiness all around. While this album probably won't be winning awards for being innovative or for the lyrics, it's a fun ride while it lasts.
