I Wish That I Could See You Soon



Overall, I wouldn't say that "Next Year in Zion" by Herman Dune is a great album. But, to be honest, I didn't listen to a lot of new albums in 2008. And there are a couple pretty great songs on this one, like the title track and "Try To Think About Me (Don't You Worry A Bit)". I scanned through the Top 50 at pitchfork to see if there were any albums that I've enjoyed but just forgot about (or forgot they were 2008 albums), but that just depressed me, since it made me realize how little new stuff I've heard this year. I haven't even gotten around to picking up Kimya Dawson's "Alphabutt" yet, which I'm guessing would probably have been my favorite.
