In this, the era of digital and easily-downloadable music, it's almost a lost and forgotten term: Album. Be that as it may, they are still released and are still, though some wonder why, purchased. As was the case with Radiohead, however, their album was issued initially as a download and then released to the stores. Though the market was flooded with music -often times bad and as cookie-cutter as most of the rest- a few stood out as some amazing pieces of ear candy. Here are the ten best of '07. Oh, and to save you all some time, I've included a video from said album and a short, three-word write-up. I want you all to decide for yourselves, I don't need to coach you on what you should or should not enjoy.
