I personally like these Best of the year music threads on TFP. I tend to be 5 years behind in my music, and through these threads is how I've heard about bands like the Arctic Monkeys, and the Birthday Massacre. Aside from the Raconteurs I have not heard any of these albums. I can't wait to give them a try and decide if I like them or not.
So, please, keep posting your favorites from the year, and posts like "No good music came out this year" are not necessary or helpful. As for my favorite albums of the year (given I have done a poor job keeping up to date).
Raconteurs - Consolers of the Lonely
Flobots - Fight With Tools
There was an arabic album I found in Kuwait by a band called Nia (I believe). Thoroughly enjoyed it, but didn't want to spend the $30 they were charging for the album and haven't found it anywhere else. Unfortunately, that is as far as my 2008 music experience has been.
