Favorite albums of 2003

Just trying to get a taste of the styles floating around this board...

My favorite records of the year were:
1. Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks - Pig Lib
2. The Shins - Chutes Too Narrow
3. Blur - Think Tank
4. The Wrens - The Meadowlands
5. British Sea Power - The Decline of British Sea Power
6. Grandaddy - Sumday
7. The Rapture - Echoes
8. Yo La Tengo - Summer Sun
9. Super Furry Animals - Phantom Power
10. Radiohead - Hail to the Thief
I thought the Radiohead album was very good, but I didn't like it much. If that makes any sense.

I've yet to hear the new Belle & Sebastian or Decemberists albums, but otherwise I'm pretty happy with my list. I was pretty underwhelmed by the new output of The Books, The Strokes, The White Stripes, Broken Social Scene, and Manitoba, which many of my friends liked.

IMO, 2003 was a much better year for music than 2002 or 2001, which I felt were pretty weak.

What was everybody else's favorite albums of 2003?
