Former Bill Clinton aide Howard Wolfson offers up his favorite albums of 2008 over at his blog Gotham Acme. The list includes Bon Iver, Fleet Foxes and Bonnie “Prince” Billy to name a few. His take on Beach House:

The sounds of the carnival at night: hazy, gauzy, just over the ridge. Who knew Mazzy Star was going to be this influential?

It’s the making of a great music critic and further insight into why America’s youth love Bill Clinton.
